Replace unix 'new line' with windows 'new line'
I'm trying to write a script to convert a unix text file to windows/dos format. Essentially all I want to do is replace the Unix return with a windows one.
on the command line I can do this successfully by:
sed s/$/^M/ ~/unix.txt ~/dos.txt
when I put this line in my shell script it literally enters a ^M in the text file.

extresso
EXTRESSO(1) General Commands Manual EXTRESSO(1)
NAME
extresso - wrapper for wrestool and icotool
SYNOPSIS
extresso [OPTIONS]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the extresso command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
Extresso reads resource scripts, and uses wrestool to extract the listed resources and icotool to convert them (if necessary).
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').
-o,--output=DIR
Where to place extracted files (default `.').
--format=FORMAT
Extraction format of icon resources, passed to icotool.
-b,--base=DIR
Base directory of local files in scripts. (This will be appended to ``file'' lines in the scripts.)
-i,--interactive
Prompt before extraction.
-v,--verbose
Explain what is being done.
--help Display a help message and exit.
--version
Output version information and exit.
EXAMPLES
Extract all resources from shell32.dll using the resource script ``win98_shell32'', assuming it is available in ``/windows/windows/sys-
tem/shell32.dll'', and placing output in ``out/'':
$ extresso ../data/resscripts/win98_shell32 --base=/windows/windows --output=out/
$ find out/ -type f | wc -l
339
$
