Actually, if you use FTP transfer in ascii mode (rather than binary mode),
the server does the translation for you. That's the recommended method,
IMO. It allows you to edit the files on the Windows platform with all the
normal Windows tools, without having to take special care of those line end
characters. (And it fits in with the philosophy of other multi-platform
client-server tools like cvsnt... :)
