NAME unix2dos -- convert ASCII files from UNIX's LF to DOS's CR/LF SYNOPSIS unix2dos [-p] [file ...] DESCRIPTION When called without parameters, the unix2dos utility reads from the stan- dard input, transforming LF characters into CR/LF pairs and writing them to the standard output. If there's at least one filename specified, the file operands are processed in command line order, reading from the files speci- fied and overwriting them with the converted version. If the [-p] option is given, both the access and modification time of the original file are preserved. It's important to note that the unix2dos utility is the same program as the dos2unix(1) utility. It simply checks its name to see what operation is ex- pected. If you change the name of the binary, unix2dos will default to converting files from UNIX to DOS. RETURN VALUES The unix2dos utility exits 0 on success, and 1 if there was an error pro- cessing any of the files. Note however that execution of the program does not stop if one of the files has a problem. The offending file is simply skipped and processing of the remaining files continues. SEE ALSO dos2unix(1) NOTES All Complains, or even better, suggestions should be addressed to the au- thor Oscar Bonilla <obonilla@galileo.edu> Feb 24, 1998 UNIX2DOS(1)
