The easier way around this problem is to make a soft link to todos and
fromdos. If you have sudo administrative rights, you can make the soft
link in the same directory as follows...

sudo ln -s fromdos dos2unix
sudo ln -s todos unix2dos

Or if do not have sudo privileges, you can make the soft link from a
directory that you have access to...

I prefer this method over creating an alias since the alias should be in
a file that needs to be read during system initialise (or by typing
source <alias_file>) . If done local, alias will work in the present
window that it has been set; a soft link will work directly after
creation.

I have made both soft links and I have already run dos2unix
successfully....

I hope this helps...
