Summary: dos2unix/unix2dos options are wrong
Description:
This is what the documentation online at
http://www.busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html says :
dos2unix
dos2unix [option] [FILE]
Converts FILE from dos format to unix format. When no option is given, the
input is converted to the opposite output format. When no file is given,
uses stdin for input and stdout for output.
Options:
-u output will be in UNIX format
-d output will be in DOS format
unix2dos
unix2dos [option] [FILE]
Converts FILE from unix format to dos format. When no option is given, the
input is converted to the opposite output format. When no file is given,
uses stdin for input and stdout for output.
Options: -u output will be in UNIX format
-d output will be in DOS format
In fact it seems to be the other way round (from my experiments). i.e. -d
gives unix line endings and -u gives dos ones. It's probably a bug, but
easier to change the docs than the code.
