Redirect output directly with DOS end of line
Hi guys,

I have some echo scripts and awk scripts like these:
Code:
echo "some text" > output1
.
.
awk '{....}{print}' input > output2

Both output1 and output2 are saved with unix END Of Line, then,
is there an option to include within echo command and awk command to save the output as DOS END Of Line?

Or the solution should be pipe a conversion before redirect to a file as example below?
Code:
echo "some text" | sed 's/$/\r/'  > output1
.
.
awk '{....}{print}' input | sed 's/$/\r/'> output2

Many thanks for any help.

You can use unix2dos utility for this...
Code:
root@bt:/tmp# od -c inputfile 
0000000   M   y       n   a   m   e       i   s       u   n   i   x  \n
0000020   W   h   a   t       i   s       y   o   u   r   s   ?  \n

root@bt:/tmp# unix2dos inputfile

0000020  \n   W   h   a   t       i   s       y   o   u   r   s   ?  \r

dos2unix and unix2dos is the pair of the convert commands.
