Bug#467287: RFA: tofrodos -- Converts DOS <-> Unix text files, alias tofromdos



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request an adopter for the tofrodos package. Easy to maintain, but no
changes required over the last two years, and other means of achieving
the same goal exist...

The package description is:
 DOS text files traditionally have CR/LF (carriage return/line feed) pairs
 as their new line delimiters while Unix text files traditionally have
 LFs (line feeds) to terminate each line.
 .
 Tofrodos comprises one program, "fromdos" alias "todos", which converts
 text files to and from these formats. Use "fromdos" to convert DOS
 text files to the Unix format, and "todos" to convert Unix text files
 to the DOS format.
 .
 This functionality is also available via the dos2unix/unix2dos symlinks.
 .

Prospective adopter, be aware that this package has some reverse
Build-Depends and that this package was formerly part of the sysutils
package.

Cheers,
Flo
