Introduction

dos2unix , the program that converts plain text files in DOS/MAC format to UNIX format . Default option is to convert the file in place (-o). There is also option -k --keepdate that allows to preserve the date stamp of the file.

The Dos2unix package includes utilities "dos2unix" and "unix2dos" to convert plain text files in DOS or Mac format to Unix format and vice versa.

In DOS/Windows text files a line break, also known as newline, is a combination of two characters: a Carriage Return (CR) followed by a Line Feed (LF). In Unix text files a line break is a single character: the Line Feed (LF). In Mac text files, prior to Mac OS X, a line break was single Carriage Return (CR) character. Nowadays Mac OS uses Unix style (LF) line breaks.

Binary files are automatically skipped, unless conversion is forced.

Non-regular files, such as directories and FIFOs, are automatically skipped.

Symbolic links and their targets are by default kept untouched. Symbolic links can optionally be replaced, or the output can be written to the symbolic link target. Symbolic links on Windows are not supported. Windows symbolic links always replaced, keeping the targets unchanged.

Dos2unix was modeled after dos2unix under SunOS/Solaris and has similar conversion modes.

Important options are

-k --keepdate

Keep the date stamp of output file same as input file.

-f, --force Force conversion of binary files (file with non-printable characters are considered to be binary by dos2unix)

Syntax and options

dos2unix [options] [-c convmode] [-o file ...] [-n infile outfile ...] 

Options:

[-hkqV] [--help] [--keepdate] [--quiet] [--version]

If single argument is given that file in converted "in-place" with the same name.

• -- Treat all following options as file names. Use this option if you want to convert files whose names start with a dash. For instance to convert a file named "-foo", you can use this command:

  dos2unix -- -foo

  Or in new file mode:

  dos2unix -n -- -foo out.txt

• -ascii Convert only line breaks. This is the default conversion mode.
• -iso Conversion between DOS and ISO-8859-1 character set. See also
  section CONVERSION MODES.
• -1252 Use Windows code page 1252 (Western European).

• -437 Use DOS code page 437 (US). This is the default code page used for
  ISO conversion.

• -850 Use DOS code page 850 (Western European).

• -860 Use DOS code page 860 (Portuguese).

• -863 Use DOS code page 863 (French Canadian).

• -865 Use DOS code page 865 (Nordic).

• -7 Convert 8 bit characters to 7 bit space.

• -c, --convmode CONVMODE. Set conversion mode. Where CONVMODE is one of: ascii, 7bit, iso, mac with ascii being the default.

• -f, --force. Force conversion of binary files.

• -h, --help Display help and exit.
  -k --keepdate Keep the date stamp of output file same as input file.
• -L, --license. Display program's license.

• -l, --newline. Add additional newline.
  • dos2unix: Only DOS line breaks are changed to two Unix line breaks. In Mac mode only Mac line breaks are changed to two Unix line breaks.

  • unix2dos: Only Unix line breaks are changed to two DOS line breaks. In Mac mode Unix line breaks are changed to two Mac line breaks.
• -m, --add-bom
  Write an UTF-8 Byte Order Mark in the output file. Never use this
  option when the output encoding is other than UTF-8. See also
  section UNICODE.

• -n, --newfile INFILE OUTFILE ... New file mode. Convert file INFILE and write output to file OUTFILE. File names must be given in pairs and wildcard names should not be used or you will lose your files.

  The person who starts the conversion in new file (paired) mode will
  be the owner of the converted file. The read/write permissions of
  the new file will be the permissions of the original file minus the
  umask(1) of the person who runs the conversion.

• -o, --oldfile FILE ... Old file mode. Convert file FILE and overwrite output to it. The
  program defaults to run in this mode. Wildcard names may be used.

  In old file (in-place) mode the converted file gets the same owner,
  group, and read/write permissions as the original file. Also when
  the file is converted by another user who has write permissions on
  the file (e.g. user root). The conversion will be aborted when it
  is not possible to preserve the original values. Change of owner
  could mean that the original owner is not able to read the file any
  more. Change of group could be a security risk, the file could be
  made readable for persons for whom it is not intended.
  Preservation of owner, group, and read/write permissions is only
  supported on Unix.

• -q, --quiet Quiet mode. Suppress all warnings and messages. The return value is
  zero. Except when wrong command-line options are used.

• -s, --safe Skip binary files (default).

• -F, --follow-symlink Follow symbolic links and convert the targets.

• -R, --replace-symlink Replace symbolic links with converted files (original target files
  remain unchanged).

• -S, --skip-symlink Keep symbolic links and targets unchanged (default).

• -V, --version Display version information and exit.

Conversion modes

MAC MODE
In normal mode line breaks are converted from DOS to Unix and vice
versa. Mac line breaks are not converted.

In Mac mode line breaks are converted from Mac to Unix and vice versa.
DOS line breaks are not changed.

To run in Mac mode use the command-line option "-c mac" or use the
commands "mac2unix" or "unix2mac".

Conversion modes ascii, 7bit, and iso are similar to those of dos2unix/unix2dos under SunOS/Solaris.

ascii
In mode "ascii" only line breaks are converted. This is the default
conversion mode.

Although the name of this mode is ASCII, which is a 7 bit standard,
the actual mode is 8 bit. Use always this mode when converting
Unicode UTF-8 files.

7bit
In this mode all 8 bit non-ASCII characters (with values from 128
to 255) are converted to a 7 bit space.

iso Characters are converted between a DOS character set (code page)
and ISO character set ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1) on Unix. DOS characters
without ISO-8859-1 equivalent, for which conversion is not
possible, are converted to a dot. The same counts for ISO-8859-1
characters without DOS counterpart.

When only option "-iso" is used dos2unix will try to determine the
active code page. When this is not possible dos2unix will use
default code page CP437, which is mainly used in the USA. To force
a specific code page use options "-437" (US), "-850" (Western
European), "-860" (Portuguese), "-863" (French Canadian), or "-865"
(Nordic). Windows code page CP1252 (Western European) is also
supported with option "-1252". For other code pages use dos2unix in
combination with iconv(1). Iconv can convert between a long list
of character encodings.

Never use ISO converion on Unicode text files. It will corrupt
UTF-8 encoded files.

UNICODE
Encodings
There exist different Unicode encodings. On Unix and Linux Unicode
files are typically encoded in UTF-8 encoding. On Windows Unicode text
files can be encoded in UTF-8, UTF-16, or UTF-16 big endian, but are
mostly encoded in UTF-16 format.

Conversion
Unicode text files can have DOS, Unix or Mac line breaks, like regular
text files.

All versions of dos2unix and unix2dos can convert UTF-8 encoded files,
because UTF-8 was designed for backward compatiblity with ASCII.

Dos2unix and unix2dos with Unicode UTF-16 support, can read little and
big endian UTF-16 encoded text files. To see if dos2unix was built with
UTF-16 support type "dos2unix -V".

The Windows versions of dos2unix and unix2dos convert UTF-16 encoded
files always to UTF-8 encoded files. Unix versions of dos2unix/unix2dos
convert UTF-16 encoded files to the locale character encoding when it
is set to UTF-8. Use the locale(1) command to find out what the locale
character encoding is.

Because UTF-8 formatted text files are well supported on both Windows
and Unix, dos2unix and unix2dos have no option to write UTF-16 files.
All UTF-16 characters can be encoded in UTF-8. Conversion from UTF-16
to UTF-8 is without loss. UTF-16 files will be skipped on Unix when the
locale character encoding is not UTF-8, to prevent accidental loss of
text. When an UTF-16 to UTF-8 conversion error occurs, for instance
when the UTF-16 input file contains an error, the file will be skipped.

ISO and 7-bit mode conversion do not work on UTF-16 files.

Byte Order Mark
On Windows Unicode text files typically have a Byte Order Mark (BOM),
because many Windows programs (including Notepad) add BOMs by default.
See also <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark>.

On Unix Unicode files typically don't have a BOM. It is assumed that
text files are encoded in the locale character encoding.

Dos2unix can only detect if a file is in UTF-16 format if the file has
a BOM. When an UTF-16 file doesn't have a BOM, dos2unix will see the
file as a binary file.

Use dos2unix in combination with iconv(1) to convert an UTF-16 file
without BOM.

Dos2unix never writes a BOM in the output file, unless you use option
"-m".

Unix2dos writes a BOM in the output file when the input file has a BOM,
or when option "-m" is used.

Unicode examples
Convert from Windows UTF-16 (with BOM) to Unix UTF-8

dos2unix -n in.txt out.txt

Convert from Windows UTF-16 (without BOM) to Unix UTF-8

iconv -f UTF-16 -t UTF-8 in.txt | dos2unix > out.txt

Convert from Unix UTF-8 to Windows UTF-8 with BOM

unix2dos -m -n in.txt out.txt

Convert from Unix UTF-8 to Windows UTF-16

unix2dos < in.txt | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-16 > out.txt

EXAMPLES
Read input from 'stdin' and write output to 'stdout'.

dos2unix
dos2unix -l -c mac

Convert and replace a.txt. Convert and replace b.txt.

dos2unix a.txt b.txt
dos2unix -o a.txt b.txt

Convert and replace a.txt in ascii conversion mode.

dos2unix a.txt

Convert and replace a.txt in ascii conversion mode. Convert and
replace b.txt in 7bit conversion mode.

dos2unix a.txt -c 7bit b.txt
dos2unix -c ascii a.txt -c 7bit b.txt
dos2unix -ascii a.txt -7 b.txt

Convert a.txt from Mac to Unix format.

dos2unix -c mac a.txt
mac2unix a.txt

Convert a.txt from Unix to Mac format.

unix2dos -c mac a.txt
unix2mac a.txt

Convert and replace a.txt while keeping original date stamp.

dos2unix -k a.txt
dos2unix -k -o a.txt

Convert a.txt and write to e.txt.

dos2unix -n a.txt e.txt

Convert a.txt and write to e.txt, keep date stamp of e.txt same as
a.txt.

dos2unix -k -n a.txt e.txt

Convert and replace a.txt. Convert b.txt and write to e.txt.

dos2unix a.txt -n b.txt e.txt
dos2unix -o a.txt -n b.txt e.txt

Convert c.txt and write to e.txt. Convert and replace a.txt. Convert
and replace b.txt. Convert d.txt and write to f.txt.

dos2unix -n c.txt e.txt -o a.txt b.txt -n d.txt f.txt

RECURSIVE CONVERSION
Use dos2unix in combination with the find(1) and xargs(1) commands to
recursively convert text files in a directory tree structure. For
instance to convert all .txt files in the directory tree under the
current directory type:

find . -name *.txt | xargs dos2unix

LOCALIZATION
LANG
The primary language is selected with the environment variable
LANG. The LANG variable consists out of several parts. The first
part is in small letters the language code. The second is optional
and is the country code in capital letters, preceded with an
underscore. There is also an optional third part: character
encoding, preceded with a dot. A few examples for POSIX standard
type shells:

export LANG=nl Dutch
export LANG=nl_NL Dutch, The Netherlands
export LANG=nl_BE Dutch, Belgium
export LANG=es_ES Spanish, Spain
export LANG=es_MX Spanish, Mexico
export LANG=en_US.iso88591 English, USA, Latin-1 encoding
export LANG=en_GB.UTF-8 English, UK, UTF-8 encoding

For a complete list of language and country codes see the gettext
manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#Language-Codes>

On Unix systems you can use to command locale(1) to get locale
specific information.

LANGUAGE
With the LANGUAGE environment variable you can specify a priority
list of languages, separated by colons. Dos2unix gives preference
to LANGUAGE over LANG. For instance, first Dutch and then German:
"LANGUAGE=nl:de". You have to first enable localization, by setting
LANG (or LC_ALL) to a value other than "C", before you can use a
language priority list through the LANGUAGE variable. See also the
gettext manual:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#The-LANGUAGE-variable>

If you select a language which is not available you will get the
standard English messages.

DOS2UNIX_LOCALEDIR
With the environment variable DOS2UNIX_LOCALEDIR the LOCALEDIR set
during compilation can be overruled. LOCALEDIR is used to find the
language files. The GNU default value is "/usr/local/share/locale".
Option --version will display the LOCALEDIR that is used.

Example (POSIX shell):

export DOS2UNIX_LOCALEDIR=$HOME/share/locale

RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. When a system error occurs the last
system error will be returned. For other errors 1 is returned.

The return value is always zero in quiet mode, except when wrong
command-line options are used.

• 190321 : How do I convert between Unix and DOS text files? ( )

Old News ;-)

How do I convert between Unix and DOS text files?

The Unix and DOS operating systems (which includes Microsoft Windows) differ in the format in which they store text files. DOS places both a line feed and a carriage return character at the end of each line of a text file, but Unix uses only a line feed character. Some DOS applications need to see carriage return characters at the ends of lines, and may treat Unix-format files as giant single lines. Some Unix applications won't recognize the carriage returns added by DOS, and will display Ctrl-m ( ^M ) characters at the end of each line.

There are many ways to solve this problem. This document provides instructions for using FTP, screen capture, unix2dos and dos2unix, tr, awk, Perl, and Emacs to do the conversion. Before you use these utilities, the files you are converting must first be on a Unix computer.

FTP

When using an FTP program to move a text file between Unix and DOS, be sure the file is transferred in ASCII format. This will ensure that the document is transformed into a text format appropriate for the host. Some FTP programs, especially graphical applications like Rapid Filer, do this automatically. If you are using FTP from the Unix or DOS prompt, however, before you begin the file transfer, be sure to enter at the FTP prompt:

  ascii

Screen Capture

You can also convert files from Unix to DOS format when transferring them to a PC with a communications program by selecting ASCII text download. Select this option with your communications program to capture all the text subsequently displayed to your screen, and then enter at the Unix prompt:

  cat unixfile.txt

Replace unixfile.txt with the name of the Unix text file you are transferring. Most communications programs will add carriage returns to the stream of text as they save it to your computer's hard drive. Once the file has finished displaying, abort the text download.

Note: This method may be slow for large text files. Also, no error checking is performed on the file as it is transferred. Line noise may corrupt its contents, especially if you are using a terminal connect program such as HyperTerminal.

dos2unix and unix2dos

On systems using SunOS, such as , the utilities dos2unix and unix2dos are available. These utilities provide a straightforward method for converting files from the Unix command line.

To use either command, simply type the command followed by the name of the file you wish to convert, and the name of a file which will contain the converted results. Thus, to convert a DOS file to a Unix file, at the Unix prompt, enter:

  dos2unix dosfile.txt unixfile.txt

To convert a Unix file to DOS, enter:

  unix2dos unixfile.txt dosfile.txt

Note: These utilities are only available on SunOS systems. To determine what variety of Unix is running on your computer, see the Knowledge Base document In Unix, how can I display information about the operating system?

tr

You can use tr to remove all carriage returns and Ctrl-z ( ^Z ) characters from a DOS file by entering:

  tr -d '\15\32' < dosfile.txt > unixfile.txt

You cannot use to to convert a document from Unix format to DOS.

awk

To use awk to convert a DOS file to Unix, at the Unix prompt, enter:

  awk '{ sub("\r$", ""); print }' dosfile.txt > unixfile.txt

To convert a Unix file to DOS using awk, at the command line, enter:

  awk 'sub("$", "\r")' unixfile.txt > dosfile.txt

On some systems, the version of awk may be old and not include the function sub. If so, try the same command, but with gawk or nawk replacing awk.

Perl

To convert a DOS text file to a Unix text file using Perl, at the Unix shell prompt, enter:

  perl -p -e 's/\r$//' < dosfile.txt > unixfile.txt

To convert from a Unix text file to a DOS text file with Perl, at the Unix shell prompt, enter:

  perl -p -e 's/$/\r/' < unixfile.txt > dosfile.txt

You must use single quotation marks in either command line. This prevents your shell from trying to evaluate anything inside.

Emacs

You can also convert a DOS file named dosfile.txt to a Unix text file using Emacs, a Unix text editor. Enter at the Unix shell prompt:

  emacs dosfile.txt

This will open the file in the Emacs text editor. To remove all the ^M characters, enter:

  M-% C-q C-m RET RET !

Note: For Emacs, keystrokes are presented in a special format. See the Knowledge Base document In Emacs, how are keystrokes denoted?

It may also be necessary to remove a Ctrl-z at the end of the document. To quickly get to the end of the document in Emacs, type:

  M->

If you see a Ctrl-z at the end of the document, delete it.

To convert a Unix file named unixfile.txt to a DOS text file, first open it in Emacs. At the Unix shell prompt, enter:

  emacs unixfile.txt

This will open the file in the Emacs text editor. To add carriage returns, which will appear as ^M in Emacs, type:

  M-% C-q C-j RET C-q C-m C-q C-j RET !

It may also be necessary to add a Ctrl-z at the end of the document. At the very end of the document, type:

  C-q C-z
