No panacea that dos2unix (or 'tleast maybe the one I use isn't robust enough).
I've had occasions happen where it left garbage characters (carat-qmark pairings particularly) in files I thought were, at minimum, ASCII and the line-endings just needed tweaking. I find the better approach to be to use a CLI editor or the GUI one I mentioned in my previous post, Crimson Editor.

dos2unix is one utility that you can use to clean up your windows text files for use in Unix.
