NAME
unix2dos - convert text file from ISO format to DOS format
SYNOPSIS
unix2dos [ -ascii ] [ -iso ] [ -7 ] originalfile conver-
tedfile
DESCRIPTION
unix2dos converts ISO standard characters to the correspond-
ing characters in the DOS extended character set.
This command may be invoked from either DOS or SunOS. How-
ever, the filenames must conform to the conventions of the
environment in which the command is invoked.
If the original file and the converted file are the same,
unix2dos will rewrite the original file after converting it.
OPTIONS
-ascii
Adds carriage returns and converts end of file charac-
ters in SunOS format text files to conform to DOS
requirements.
-iso This is the default. Converts ISO standard characters
to the corresponding character in the DOS extended
character set.
-7 Convert 8 bit SunOS characters to 7 bit DOS charac-
ters.
DIAGNOSTICS
File filename not found, or no read permission
The input file you specified does not exist, or you do
not have read permission (check with the SunOS command
ls -l).
Bad output filename filename, or no write permission
The output file you specified is either invalid, or
you do not have write permission for that file or the
directory that contains it. Check also that the drive
or diskette is not write-protected.
Error while writing to temporary file
An error occurred while converting your file, possibly
because there is not enough space on the current
drive. Check the amount of space on the current drive
using the DIR command. Also be certain that the
default diskette or drive is write-enabled (not
write-protected). Note that when this error occurs,
the original file remains intact.
