If you are using SlackWare, there is a program called 'todos'. This program will take a file and turn the cr's to crlf sequences. Here's an example using "file" in substitute for an actual file name: todos < file > file This will take the file directed to and output it into the file you specify. If you type: todos < file | lpr This will output the converted file to the 'lpr' command. Note: there is a program (fromdos) which does the reverse (converts crlf sequences to just cr). I hope this helps. Best regards, Jason On Wed, 9 Dec 1998, Charles Hallenbeck wrote: > Hi, > Thanks for the info.
