Everyone,

I installed the "unix2dos" package a second time, and voila! it worked.  I 
don't know what I goofed up the first time.

I think "tuc" has a little more power, but "unix2dos" works fine.  Do read 
the man page to understand it's idiosyncratic behavior regarding input 
files:
- standard input modified to standard output
- filename on command line modified in place even with output redirection 
specified

Sorry for the misinformation.

Greg

I promise to try twice next time.  8)
