.SH NAME
fromdos \- convert DOS text file format to UNIX.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.BI fromdos\ <\ dosfile.txt\ >\ unixfile.txt
.SH DESCRIPTION
fromdos takes a DOS text file as stdin and sends a UNIX text file to stdout.
DOS text file format separates lines of text by two characters: CR followed
by LF (hex 0d 0a). UNIX text file format separates lines of text with
a single LF character (hex 0a).  This program changes the CR LF groups found
in the input stream to LF in the output stream.
