OK, here's my idea for such a module...  Its AUTOLOAD function
supports methods named X2Y, X_to_Y, XtoY, X_toY, or Xto_Y.  Or simply
toY, to_Y, or _to_Y.  Or convert() as in your example.  You can use
uppercase letters if you like; it's case-insensitive.  X and Y are one
of "crlf", "cr", "lf", or any of several aliases for these:
 * Instead of "crlf" you can say "dos," "windows," "win32," or "mswin."
 * For "lf" you can say "unix," "linux," "darwin," or "osx."
 * For "cr" you can say "mac" or "macos."
Again, these are case-insensitive, so "DOS2UNIX" or "MacOS9ToDarwin".

I got a little carried away with the Mac regexp's, I'm afraid.  
For OSX (Darwin), I match mac(intosh)?os(x|1[0-9])
For all other Mac's, it uses mac(intosh)?(os[1-9])?
It seems to work, though...

Also, if you don't feel like using OO syntax, you can also import
methods.  If you say "use Text::CRLF 'dos2unix'" then that function
will be available in your current package.  It uses the object
$DEFAULT in the Text::CRLF package and calls the appropriate method.

I need to write more comments, but here's the code anyway...



package Text::CRLF;

use strict;
use vars qw($AUTOLOAD $DEFAULT);

my $crlf = "\x0D\x0A";
my $cr   = "\x0D";
my $lf   = "\x0A";

my $myPlatform = $lf;
$myPlatform = $cr   if $^O =~ /mac/i;
$myPlatform = $crlf if $^O =~ /mswin|dos/i;

my %subs = (
  convert => sub { s/($crlf|$cr|$lf)/$myPlatform/og },
  crlf2lf => sub { s/$crlf/$lf/og },
  lf2crlf => sub { s/$lf/$crlf/og },
  cr2crlf => sub { s/$cr/$crlf/og  },
  cr2lf   => sub { s/$cr/$lf/og },
  crlf2cr => sub { s/$crlf/$cr/og  },
  lf2cr   => sub { s/$lf/$cr/og },
  "2crlf" => sub { s/($crlf|$cr|$lf)/$crlf/og  },
  "2cr"   => sub { s/($crlf|$cr|$lf)/$cr/og  },
  "2lf"   => sub { s/($crlf|$cr|$lf)/$lf/og },
);

sub DESTROY { }

sub AUTOLOAD
{
    my($self, @args) = @_;
    my($pack, $func) = ($AUTOLOAD =~ /^(.+)::(.+)$/);
    $func = lc $func;             # Case insensitive
    $func =~ s/_?to_?/2/;         # Allow "crlf_to_lf" if user prefers
    $func =~ s/unix|linux|darwin|mac(intosh)?os(x|1[0-9])/lf/g;
    $func =~ s/mac(intosh)?(os[1-9])?/cr/g;
    $func =~ s/dos|windows|win32|mswin/crlf/g;

    die qq/Can't locate object method "$func" via package "$pack"/
        unless exists $subs{$func};

    my $sub = $subs{$func};
    foreach (@args)
    {
        $_ = join('', <$_>)
            if (ref $_ && (ref $_ eq 'GLOB') || $_->isa("IO::Handle"));
        &$sub;
    }
    wantarray ? @args : (@args ? \@args : $args[0]);
}

$SIG{ALRM} = sub { die "alarm" };
alarm(10);

sub import
{
    my($pkg, @funcs) = @_;
    my $callpkg = caller(0);
    $DEFAULT = new $pkg;
    foreach my $f (@funcs)
    {
        eval "sub exp_$f { \$DEFAULT->$f(\@_); }";
        die "eval failed: $@" if $@;
        eval '*'.$callpkg.'::'.$f.' = \&exp_'.$f;
        die "eval failed: $@" if $@;
    }
}

sub new
{
    my $class = shift;
    bless { @_ } => $class;
}

1;
