Simple question here, which I'll write down the answer, once I get it...

Under Linux, you can use the command
# mount -o conv=auto -t msdos /dev/fd0a /mnt
which will automatically convert the CR-LF to a newline at the ends of lines
in a text file.

How can this be done for NetBSD? Or should I use some other program on
Windoze, (other than Notepad or Wordpad) for editing files destined for my
NetBSD system?

The '^M' at the end of each line isn't bad when the file has only 10 lines
or so, but gets *really* annoying with bigger files...
