For the record, I wanted to point out that my LIST utility can handle
such things as converting between different text file formats. Someone
recently asked about converting Unix files (with LF) to ProDOS format (with
CR). You can configure LIST to do this: go into Unix mode to read the file,
and use the configuration screen to specify the disk output line terminator to
be CR (which is the default). By printing the entire file to disk, the LF's
will be converted to CR's. By selecting the different line modes and the
various disk output line terminator options, you can convert between ProDOS,
MS-DOS and Unix files. It is also possible to convert AWP files to ProDOS,
MS-DOS or Unix, but the reverse is not (yet) possible (perhaps in a future
version).
