Hey,
I am writing a little program that creates an ini file for a windows program to be used by Cegega (WineX4) - Linux.
Problem:
I can encode the text file to utf8 but of course the file is created by a program in Linux (c++) so its meta format is Unix. I want to change it to DOS.
Is there a sane way to do this?
It has to be DOS or the windows program running in cedega wont recognise it.
All input appreciated. Dont be shy..

Using Slackware 10.0

If the file is created by a C++ program it should be possible to add the 0x0d character at the end of a line. There is the utility unix2dos which will convert a text file to the DOS format.

Thanks.
That should help.
Will try it later when I finish work...
