Many thanks to those who replied to my enquiry on dos2unix.

Reason for the enquiry: I have a .txt file that I wish to edit using Elvis.

However, line endings when one saves a dos file to txt are inconsistent .I
was told dos2unix would fix this. I'm using the latest Ubuntu. Even so,
dos2unix will have to be installed separately.

Final question: dos2unix will fix up the line endings. Is there anything
else it fixes?

William Bennett.
