dos to unix CR/LF conversion?

[Peter L. Peres]

#!/bin/bash /usr/local/bin/u2d 755
awk '/\r$/ {printf("%s\n",$0);next;} {printf("%s\r\n",$0);next;}'

#!/bin/bash /usr/local/bin/d2u 755
tr -d '\r\032'

Use as filters, as in:

<myfile d2u >myfile.changed

do *not* use the same file for input and output. The input file will be
deleted if you do this.
