Seems to work.

Seems to work o.k.

Huh, could you provide an example?
I thought the main problem is using everything on textmounts, because
at the outputs are '\r' attached, everytime an output is made, thats also
a kind of automode, but in the wrong direction. It seems to me, that the
perl interpreter looks what mount type it is on and then automagically
writes in that format, but it does it wrong. If a file has '\r\n' at the
end of a line, there is another '\r' attached and again if the same
procedure is repeated, so you get '\n\r\r\r\r\r\r\r' someday.
I see no problems with the automode.o built in. I read in dosfiles on
text and binary mounts and perl wrote them back as they are, in 'binary'
mode, yes, but perl don't care about mount options no more, if it reads
in '\n\r' in it puts the same out again, nothing additional attached,
just like it should be.

If i want to use such a script like it was posted, there should be
no need to use chomp(), this works with automode.o and no chomps, no matter
if file2.txt is text- or binmode, no matter if i'm on a text- or binmount.
#!/usr/bin/perl
# cr.lf.pl - testscript
rename("file2.txt","file1.txt");
open(F1,"file1.txt");
open(F2,">file2.txt");
while(<F1>) {
# have to use chomp; chop; print F2 $_ . "\n"; to get it to work
print F2;
}
close(F1);
close(F2);
