Hello,

AFAIK the utility `utod' supplied with DJGPP only does NL to CR/LF
conversion, and does *not* convert ISO standard characters to the
corresponding DOS extended characters.

So, for Unix text files that use extended characters, I must first
process them with unix2dos before I can use them on my PC.  If the
files *don't* use extended characters, however, I can copy them over
to the PC and run `utod' there.

Is there a DJGPP utility that does perform ISO-PC conversion, so that
I could do all the conversion after copying Unix text files to the PC?
Does djtar do this?

TIA,
jeff williams
