Return character of text files are different by operating system as follows:

DOS, Windows   0D 0A   (\r\n)
UNIX           0A      (\n)
Machintosh     0D      (\r)

CVRET convert these return characters each other.

If you convert UNIX type to other type, only single 0A codes are converted,
and 0D,0A sequences remain as they are. Similary, If you convert Machintosh
type to other type, only single 0D codes are converted, and 0D,0A sequences
will not be changed.

Options are preceded by "/" or "-".
