Line terminations for different operating systems:

Classic Mac	0x0d	CR
Windows	0x0d 0x0a	CR LF

To convert a text file with DOS line termination to UNIX line termination:

tr -d '15'  unixfile.txt

or

sed s/.$// winfile.txt > unixfile.txt

To convert a unix file to a DOS file:

sed s/$/x0d/ unixfile.txt > winfile.txt
