There's a very nice utility developed by Josh Aas called 'LineBreak' that handles this nicely via GUI, including drag-n-drop:
'This is a simple utility for Mac OS X that converts line breaks in text documents'
It's GPL'd, and can be found at <http://www.macalester.edu/~jaas/linebreak.html>
So, what do I do with the downloaded flip.osx file?

I'll assume a little Unix and CLI knowledge -- if not, this may not be a very useful command for you.
1. Download the file with a Command-click (to make sure binary will work properly).
2. Start a terminal and move the file to the directory where you keep any other Unix commands. You can also drop the '.osx' and
rename it if you wish.
3. Change permissions to allow users to execute flip.osx ('chmod 555 flip.osx' should do it).
4. Type 'rehash' and try it out with the '-t' option. If it doesn't work, double check your permissions and whatnot.

Since it can charge your MacBook, MacBook Air, or 13-inch MacBook Pro, and it also features two USB-A ports, two HDMI ports, a display port, and a headphone jack, making it not only a fantastic monitor but a whole hub for connectivity.When it comes to excellent 4K monitors, the is hard to beat, with excellent bang for your buck. Its combined features and price make it a great consideration for anyone looking for a 4K display to use with their Mac, but the lack of USB-C can be concerning for some.Lastly, if the price is your only concern, the is probably the monitor you should pick up. That's where the comes in. Monit for mac os x.

cat $1 tr 'r' 'n'
To convert unix files to Mac files, here is 'unix2mac':
cat $1 tr 'n' 'r'
To convert DOS files to unix files, here is 'dos2unix':
cat $1 tr -d 'r'
These employ the 'tr' (translate character) utility.
Need double-backslashes in this website (one gets
eaten by the remove slashes step, after previewing;)
I got bitten by that too; Larry.
the freeware TextExtras provides an service-menu for line-ending-conversion. like all services its available in all cocoa-text-fields.
In the following example we have just read the contents of a file and put it into fContents.
-- first we ask to put all the lines into a list (fParagraphs). AppleScript doesn't care if it is Unix, Mac or Windows.
set fParagraphs to paragraphs of fContents
-- now we tell AppleScript that lists will be concatenated using return characters when the list is converted to a string (Mac). This could also be 'n' for newline (UNIX), 'rn' for character return+new line (Windows) or 'r' for character return (Mac). Don't be alarmed when you compile the script and see that r and n has changed into line breaks. The script still know that they are two different characters.
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to return
-- here we convert the list of paragraphs to strings using the text item delimiters
set fContentsNew to fParagraphs as string
-- here we reset the text item delimiters to ' which is default.
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to '
You can download the package from here:

USAGE: dos2unix [file ..]
DESCRIPTION
When called whithout parameters, the dos2unix utility reads from the standard input, transforming CR/LF pairs into an
LF character and writing it to the standard output. If there's at least one filename specified, the file operands are
processed in command line order, reading from the files specified and overwriting them with the converted version.
It's important to note that the dos2unix utility is the same program as the unix2dos(1) utility. It simply checks its name
to see what operation is expected. If you change the name of the binary, dos2unix will default to converting files from
UNIX to DOS.
#!/bin/sh
zip -qr foo.zip '$@' && unzip -aqo foo.zip && rm foo.zip
And then execute it as:
fixascii [files or directories to convert]
Which has the benefit over most of these other commands in that you can point it with impunity at an entire directory tree and it will process all the files in it and not corrupt any binaries that may happen to have a string of bits in them that look like a line-ending.
If it is, close it straight from the Activity Monitor.To close an app in Activity Monitor, click it in the list then click the “x” stop sign-style button at the top left corner.

You can check the Activity Monitor ( Command + Space, type “activity monitor”) to see whether one of those apps is running in the background. Force Quit VDCAssistant and AppleCameraAssistantIf you need to use your camera right away or can’t dedicate a lot of time to troubleshooting the issue, try restarting camera-related processes like “VDCAssistant” and “AppleCameraAssistant” in the Terminal app.
I've seen too many times where someone corrupted a ton of images and other binaries, when trying to fix line-endings on text files using dos2unix or tr in combination with find but failed to ensure that only text files were processed. Unzip figure out which files are ascii, converts them, and leaves the binaries alone.
BTW, it's the '-a' flag to unzip, that is causing the ascii files to have their lines endings converted.
Thanks! Couldn't resist optimizing this one a bit, though. :)
zip -qr0 foo.zip '$@' && unzip -aqo foo.zip && rm foo.zip
which does no compression and presumably will take less CPU time. Of course it requires more disk space..
I thought about factoring out the foo.zip into a variable but am too rusty in sh/bash syntax and have already spent too much time skimming through the bash man page. :)
I also thought about generating a (hopefully)-guaranteed unique temp filename rather than using foo.zip as is. I think you do that with $$ or similar.
Is your Mac up to date with the latest version of the Mac operating system (macOS or OS X)? Is it using the version required by some product or feature? Which versions are earlier (older) or later (newer, more recent) than the version currently installed? To find out, learn which version is installed now.
If your macOS isn't up to date, you may be able to update to a later version.
Which macOS version is installed?
From the Apple menu in the corner of your screen, choose About This Mac. You'll see the macOS name, such as macOS Mojave, followed by its version number. If some product or feature requires you to know the build number as well, click the version number to see it.
This example shows macOS Catalina version 10.15 build 19A583.
Which macOS version is the latest?
These are all Mac operating systems, starting with the most recent. When a major new macOS is released, it gets a new name, such as macOS Catalina. And as updates that change the macOS version number become available, this article is updated to show the latest version of that macOS.
If your Mac is using an earlier version of any Mac operating system, you should install the latest Apple software updates, which can include important security updates and updates for the apps installed by macOS, such as Safari, Books, Messages, Mail, Music, Calendar, and Photos.
