Hi,

Now that 3.0 reads MAC and DOS diskettes, it would be nice if NeXT  
included a simpl textfile concversion option. In the absence of such  
aforethought, does there exist any kind unix programmers out there who can  
create a program so that my linebreaks (and any other nuances of how unix  
and macs treat text files) are preserved when I start a text only file on  
one platform and finish it on another?

The motive here is LaTeXing files.
