-This is an update of Benjamin Lin's implementations of dos2unix
-and unix2dos. Benjamin Lin's implementations of dos2unix and
-unix2dos are part of several Linux distributions such as RedHat,
-Fedora, Suse, Gentoo and some others. On Slackware one finds fromdos
-and todos but these implementations are not included. This update
-includes all RedHat patches and fixes several other problems.

-These implementations of dos2unix and unix2dos have been modeled
-after dos2unix/unix2dos under SunOS/Solaris. They have similar
-conversion modes, namely ascii, 7bit and iso. The first versions
-were made by John Birchfield in 1989, and in 1995 rewritten from
-scratch by Benjamin Lin. Mac to Unix conversion was added by Bernd
-Johannes Wuebben in 1998, Unix to Mac by Erwin in 2010.
