I can't seem to get tr to exchange more than one character since I am 
only starting with one character.

 tr "[\n]" "[\n\r]" < /tmp/foo >/windows/temp/foo2     no apparent change

 tr "[\n]" "[\r]" < /tmp/foo >/windows/temp/foo2  No apparent change when 
looking in Notepad

 tr "[\n]" "[~]" < /tmp/foo >/windows/temp/foo2  all then newlines 
changed to ~

Got any idea what I am doing wrong - I don't see any other flags or 
switches that might make a difference.
