        Sure.  I have that trick in my ~/.HowTo file.  I also have a
        small program that converts every EOL to any other EOL.  It is
        call cvt.  This conflicts with another base utility named
        install, so what is a good shell script that would capture every
        file in every subdir?

        Maybe  /bin/sh pointed at

        some loop:
        find . -type f * print;
       tr -d '\r' <dosfile >/tmp/unixfile
           mv /tmp/unixfile ./dosfile;

        IM _NSH_ Opinion, whoever threw in this wordpress port could have
        done this for us.......
