I am not fluent on perl one-liners, but now I am jealous of the previous posts, so here is a (untested) script to convert to / from any OS specific format:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
open (fh_in, "<", $ARGV[0]) or die "could not open file $!";
open (fh_out, ">", $ARGV[1]) or die "could not open file $!";

while (<fh_in>)
{
   $_ =~ s/\r//;
   $_ =~ s/\n//;
   $_ =~ s/\s+$//;
   if ( $ARGV[2] =~ m/mac/i ) { $_ = $_."\r"; }
   elsif ( $ARGV[2] =~ m/unix/i ) { $_ = $_."\n"; }
   elsif ( $ARGV[2] =~ m/windows/i ) { $_ = $_."\r\n"; }
   print fh_out;
}
close (fh_in);
close (fh_out);


just save this as whatever_you_like.pl, then make it executable:

Code:
 chmod +x whatever_you_like.pl


and call it as:
Code:
 ./whatever_you_like.pl input_file output_file SYSTEM


SYSTEM being any one choice of mac, unix or windows (case-insensitive). Again, untested, if does not work, just get back here and someone will point to any possible errors.

edit: this assumes you are developing on unix/mac, if not, you have to call the script as:
Code:
perl whatever_you_like.pl input_file output_file SYSTEM
