I'm wondering whether I can convert a UNIX-file to a ?? DOS-file that way, by replacing all the LineFeeds with ?? CarriageReturn and LineFeed (\015 and \012 I think). ?? Using \012 as a string did not work, so what will I have to do ? ?? It is even simpler to do this in emacs with a query-replace C-Q C-J (quote line-feed), with C-Q C-M C-Q C-J (carriage-return linefeed). (I usually do the reverse when transfering TeX files from my laptop to the NeXT). Then hit Esc-! to do it globally. You can then save our file in all-caps so DOS will be happy :-) . -- Hardy ----- Meinhard E. Mayer, Department of Physics, UC Irvine e-mail: hardy@golem.ps.uci.edu (preferred) or MMAYER@UCI.BITNET
