As I half expected, but synaptic doesn't admit it exists. The listing I see
here under All goes from "doom-wad-shareware" to "dosemu". Flat out missing
is dos2unix.
In the meantime I have cobbled up a shell script that does the same as an
mv but that does the translations via tr.
That is the beauty of linux, there are more ways to skin the cat than the
cat has lives. :)
