TOMAC(1)  —  USER COMMANDS

NAME

tomac − convert file to Apple Macintosh text file format

SYNOPSIS

tomac [ −c ] [ filename ... ]

DESCRIPTION

tomac reads each filename in sequence, converts it to Macintosh text format, and writes the result to standard output.  Each input file is assumed to be a regular Mac, DOS, or UNIX text file.  Thus

% tomac goodies

converts goodies to a Macintosh text format and displays the results on standard output, and

% tomac file1 file2 >file3

concatenates the first two files, converts them to Macintosh text format, and places the result on the third. 

If no filename argument is given, or if the argument ‘−’ is given, tomac reads from the standard input.  If the standard input is a terminal, input is terminated by an EOF signal, usually ^D. 

OPTIONS

−cChange input files.  If −c is used, the output is not directed to standard output.  Instead, the files are converted in place.
