MS-DOS text files use a CRLF combination. The usual methods of
converting between UNIX LF's and ProDOS CR's won't work in this case
(you'll just get double-spaced text). There are a couple of utilities
available which change CRLF's and CR's. I saw one small utility called
"The Stripper" which might do that sort of stuff.
