LF2CRLF <br> Convert Line Feeds to Carriage Returns + Line Feeds
</h1>
<hr>
<p>
<b>LF2CRLF</b>
is a C++ program which
converts line feeds to
carriage returns + linefeeds.
</p>
<p>
I constantly run into problems, when transferring
a file from one system to another, involving different conventions
for ending a line of text.
</p>
<p>
It is my understanding that the following "conventions" apply:
<ul>
<li>
Macintosh (pre OSX) text lines end with the CR (carriage return) character;
</li>
<li>
PC text lines end with the CR+LF (carriage return + line feed) characters;
</li>
<li>
UNIX text lines end with the LF (line feed) character;
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<p>
While your file transfer program will usually transfer a text file in such
a way that that carriage control is properly translated, this sometimes doesn't
happen, especially if the text file is transferred "verbatim", that is,
as though it were a binary file.
</p>
<p>
In such a case, <b>LF2CRLF</b> is the correct program to use if you want
to convert a UNIX text file to a PC text file, since it
will replace each occurrence of LF by CR+LF.
</p>

Usage:
</h3>
<p>
<blockquote>
<b>lf2crlf</b> <i>old</i> <i>new</i>
</blockquote>
where
<ul>
<li>
<i>old</i> is the file to be modified;
</li>
<li>
<i>new</i> is the modified copy of the old file.
</li>
</ul>
