Hello Jay, Hello Bruce,

I had the same issue a couple of weeks ago. As I had a large number of
files to change from mac-linebreaks to windows-linebreaks (to
unix-linebreaks can also be implemented) I wrote a small Perl-program
that operates on all files in a directory and its subdirectories and do
the reformatting for me. That saved me from opening/saving each file
independently. If you (anyone) is interested in the code I can post it
here, though I would first have to change a few lines as the script uses
full paths. Of course you would have to have Perl installed on your
computer.

Cheers,
Gerrit
