- CCL-CL
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- Format:
-
- ccl-cl [ < [filename[.ext]]
-
- Purpose:
-
- Depending on the operating system or the network communications protocol, the
- line termination sequence varies.
-
- During exchange of files with operating systems other than MS-DOS, it is
- possible that you will receive a text file with an improper line termination
- sequence. This may be confirmed by either (1) verifying the improper line
- termination sequence by dumping the file using debug or a filedump utility, or
- by (2) viewing it in an editor (such as vi or WordStar) which shows control
- characters.
-
- The CCL-CL filter terminates the lines properly for use with MS-DOS. CCL-CL
- takes its input from stdin and converts all [CR][CR][LF] sequences to [CR][LF]
- sequences.
-
- Example:
-
- Convert the file named bbs.doc, which came from a Bulletin Board system, to
- MS-DOS format and save it in the file named result.
-
- ccl-cl < bbs.doc > result
-
