In nfbtrans specifically make lowercase only does part of the dos to unix conversion job. The unzip utility on linux has command line switches to do the job more thoroughly. Had I used the switches in unzip I would not only have had everything lowercase those ^m at the ends of lines would also be gone. Probably the best way to describe make is that make is a tool for managing groups of files.
