I use the dos2unix console command all the time. I am tried to typing in
that long name. I tried to do a hard link on it.
ln /usr/local/bin/dos2unix /usr/local/bin/d2u
This command is accepted without error, but when it execute it
d2u xxxx.txt
I get message ==oops you renamed me using unix2dos instead.
I also tried
ln -s /usr/local/bin/dos2unix /usr/local/bin/d2u
and got same results. ls -l does not show dos2unix as linked all ready.
What am I doing wrong here?
Usually, programs like this perform dos2unix or unix2dos translations
depending on how they are called. So renaming them won't work.
Try adding an alias to your favorite shell. That should work. E.g.put
'alias d2u dos2unix' and 'alias u2d unix2dos' in your .cshrc.

Thank you. That worked.
