  Put the text between the '--'s into a file called 'convlf'.
--
tr '\012' '\015' < $1 > temp019845
mv temp019845 $1
--
  Then execute the following command:
 chmod ugo+x convlf.

  To convert LFs to CRs, then just do:

  convlf filename

  This script only works on one file at a time because it's also a
shell-independent script.  I could write one for csh that would do
multiple files, but I don't know /bin/sh.  Anyone?
