I am looking for a program that can modify text files (a filter program). I have several of these, but unfortunately, none of the ones I have seem to be able to change a unix-style file with linefeeds-only at the end of the line to a Mac style file with a carriage-return-only at the end of a line. Just about all of the ones I have either change CR/LF to CR or the other way around. I do have one that is fairly general, but the replacement string CANNOT contain a CR! I could probably write one of these myself (I have written them before for UNIX and DOS), but the Mac interface would take me more time than it's worth, since I'm not yet an accomplished Mac user-interface programmer. Not to mention the fact that there are probably many good ones out there already. What utilities of this type are out there? (Especially PD, Freeware, or even Shareware, if it's not too expensive.) Alternatively, what specs exist for writing a filter for the Apple File Exchange program? The Apple docs sure don't say too much about this. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
