[Pythonmac-SIG] batch convert line endings

[Russell E Owen]

One utility that works is "Change Type and Creator", also called=20
"ctc". It's free and should be available from the usual Mac archives,=20
though it's old. If you have trouble finding it, let me know and I'll=20
email you a copy.

Despite the name it include EOL conversion as an option.

Each time you drop a set of files you get to pick your conversion.
