mac2unix: Create a copy with Unix-style line endings.
$ mac2unix -n ${filename} ${new_filename}
try on your machine
The command mac2unix
is used to convert a text file from Macintosh (Mac) line endings to Unix/Linux line endings. The -n
option stands for "no newline conversion", which means that only the line endings will be converted, without modifying the content of the file. The ${filename}
represents the variable name for the input file, and ${new_filename}
represents the variable name for the output file.
In summary, when this command is executed, it will convert the line endings of the file specified by the ${filename}
variable to Unix/Linux format, and save the resulting file with the name specified by the ${new_filename}
variable.
