unix2dos: Create a copy with DOS-style line endings.
$ unix2dos -n ${path-to-unix_file} ${path-to-dos_file}
try on your machine
The command "unix2dos" is used to convert a text file from Unix/Linux format to DOS/Windows format.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "unix2dos" is the name of the command/utility that performs the conversion.
- "-n" is an optional flag that can be used to prevent adding a newline character (carriage return) at the end of the converted file.
- "${path-to-unix_file}" is the path to the Unix/Linux file that you want to convert. This should be replaced with the actual path to the file on your system. For example, "/path/to/unix_file.txt".
- "${path-to-dos_file}" is the path to the DOS/Windows file where you want to save the converted output. This should also be replaced with the actual path to the file on your system. For example, "/path/to/dos_file.txt".
So, when you run this command with the appropriate paths to the files, it will read the Unix file, convert its line endings to DOS format, and save the output to the provided DOS file path.
