it doesn't work because what about

can cobble up an awk one-liner or something. I did it with rexx.
Am I missing something, or should dos2unix/unix2dos from the sysutils pckage
do the job?

Over the weekend, I took my trusty server which had multiple partitions and
swap files for RH, SuSE, NT and Debian and turned the whole thing over to
Debian.
Naturally, I backed up 4 Gigs of data first using tar czvf. Did a few tests
and all seemed to work as tar xzvf recreated the files.

Fixing by hand or writing a tool do to so. But hunt the net first, someone
might have done it already.
Let's supose your file got corrupted by a ASCII upload from UNIX - NT.
First, you must guarantee that
im no data recovery expert but chances are good that the files are gone,
tar doesnt have good(if any) file recover capabilities .. gzip does but
recovering data from a gzip file is a long and boring process, usually it
just writes the blocks of data to individual files leaving it up to you to
sort
