Be careful. I recently looked at unix2dos (I know, not what was asked
here, but close...), and it was not what I expected. It also changed all
non ascii-printable characters to another characterset. This may not be a
problem for a pure ascii file, but if you have files that contain DOS line
drawing characters (or others), beware that these tools might change those
characters as well.
