Possibly, except I found a suggestion for a 1 line bash script that works a
treat. But to the less experienced bash coder about, that should be useful
info, thanks.
FWIW, even the search for 'dos2unix' did not find a thing on my machine,
running 10.04.4 LTS. Besides, the file in question did not need cleaning
of surplus linefeed chars, just a translation which "tr '\015' '\012'" did
rather admirably.
Cheers, Gene
