Subject:	Re: Line terms; UNIX v. DOS; opinions wanted (was: Info port...)

Actually, the problem is when you have split info files.  The first
file has *absolute* offsets into the other files, and the *absolute*
offsets change if you *convert* the file between unix and dos.

If you *generate* the split file in dos, and if info is smart enough
about figuring out the file offsets, it should work.  Since the only
split info files djgpp has are the ones from FSF (i use --no-split so
that CR/LF isn't an issue) you shouldn't need to edit them anyway.
