It contains a reference to a DOS/UNIX file conversion utility called 'bsd2dos'. bsd2dos is not a part of FreeBSD and it's not a part of the port collection, either. The reference to doscmd should be replaced by a reference to an existing conversion tools like recode. A patch to that effect has been included. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: --- /usr/src/usr.bin/doscmd/doscmd.1.orig Mon Feb 28 19:06:55 2000 +++ /usr/src/usr.bin/doscmd/doscmd.1 Mon Feb 28 19:08:00 2000 @@ -536,9 +536,9 @@ character.
