I'd make one more change.
Add the 'o' option to the substitutions.
my %subs = (
crlf => sub { s/[\015\012]+/$myPlatform/o },
dos2unix => sub { s/$dos/$unix/o },
unix2dos => sub { s/$unix/$dos/o },
mac2dos => sub { s/$mac/$dos/o },
mac2unix => sub { s/$mac/$unix/o },
dos2mac => sub { s/$dos/$mac/o },
unix2mac => sub { s/$unix/$mac/o },
);
So that we don't recompile the regexp for each line in the program.

Much better. This scales nicely.
