Until then roll your own as:

# todos     use: todos < unix_file > dos_file
# dos files end each line in a CR/LF pair, add CR
# \015 = \0x0d = CR, \012 = \0x0a = LF
awk '{printf("%s\r\n", $0);}'

# fromdos   use: fromdos < dos_file > unix_file
# dos files end every line with CR/LF, remove the carriage return
# \015 = \0x0d = "\r" = CR, \032 = \0x1a = DosEOF = ^Z
tr -d "\015\032"
