u2d -- convert UNIX text files to DOS text files

Synopsis

u2d source_filename target_filename

Description

The u2d utility is used to convert UNIX text files to DOS text file format. source_filename specifies the UNIX file (optionally including pathname). target_filename specifies the name (and optionally, path) of the DOS file to be created. The two arguments must be different.

To specify the end of a line, DOS uses the two characters carriage return (CR) and linefeed (LF): UNIX uses one character, the newline (NL). u2d converts NLs into CR/LF pairs.

Usage

Note that root permissions are not needed in order to use this utility.
