Description: Converts DOS <-> Unix text files, alias tofromdos
 DOS text files traditionally have CR/LF (carriage return/line feed) pairs as their new line delimiters while Unix text files
 traditionally have LFs (line feeds) to terminate each line. 
 
 Tofrodos comprises one program, "fromdos" alias "todos", which converts text files to and from these formats. Use "fromdos" to
 convert DOS text files to the Unix format, and "todos" to convert Unix text files to the DOS format. 
 
 This functionality is also available via the dos2unix/unix2dos symlinks.

This is running debian testing, but I did have it installed and
working back before I upgraded from debian sarge. Hth.
