[wplug] CRLF

Ever since I started at CMU a year ago, I've driven faculty and staff mad 
with my reluctance to use Micro$oft data formats.  Unfortunately, my 
much-vaunted plain ASCII format has a substantial snag: when I produce 
documents in unix, the lines are not terminated in a Windows-Friendly 
fashion, and my document ends up being unreadable.

Is there any way to use the standard *nix tools to convert the CRs (or LFs 
- I forget which is which) in an ascii document to CR/LF for windows text 
editors?
