From what I can remember, they used the back slashes to avoid

Ouch!! it seems that Murphy works overtime when there isn't a good
backup of something.
On my personal system I don't trust backup programs and keep a couple
of extra unmounted drives
that my backup script mounts and then does a rsync to one and
alternates to the other on the next backup
I did a variation on this and got it to work.
I made the top level dir 'Dir2'
cd into Dir1 and the 'rsync -va . ../Dir2/
cd into Dir2
find . -type f -name *.txt -exec unix2dos {} \;
that did it. I didn't put the around the {} the first
time and it barfed on the files with spaces in them.
