NAME
unixtext - convert Macintosh type text files to Unix text

SYNOPSIS
unixtext filename [filename ...]

DESCRIPTION
Unixtext converts standard Macintosh text files with a Macintosh
end of line (carriage return) to Unix text files with a Unix end of
line (newline). It also sets the file creator to ’MUMM’ and resets
the file access information. The resulting file is suitable for
use with the standard Unix application programs.

The program is a shell script running the tr program to translate
from <cr> to <nl> It also runs chcreat to set the file creator to
’MUMM’ and chmod to reset file access information to read+write for
owner and read for group and others.

SEE ALSO

DIAGNOSTICS
If the file is not found, each of the constituent programs will
complain.

BUGS
Rewrites the input file. No way to specify an alternate output
file. Should also set the owner properly.
