Unfortunately there are thousands of files, so this won't be possible, also not
sure what it would do to binary files.

The problem we have is that we can't pick a global one or the other due to
various applications not handling them (off the top of my head, our copy of
install shield doesn't like only having LF on Windows and our build scripts
don't like CRLF on UNIX, things like Ksh just can't handle it)

It's all a bit of a pain really :-(
