# =========================
# If you have trouble with the download or home page URL, try here:
# http://sf.net/projects/dos2unix/

# Get it
cd
test -f installed/dos2unix-7.4.0.tar.gz &&
mv installed/dos2unix-7.4.0.tar.gz .
test ! -f dos2unix-7.4.0.tar.gz &&
wget https://waterlan.home.xs4all.nl/dos2unix/dos2unix-7.4.0.tar.gz

# Extract the source
mkdir -p -m 0700 ~/src
cd ~/src

tar xzvf ~/dos2unix-7.4.0.tar.gz
cd dos2unix-7.4.0
test $UID = 0 && chown -R root:root .
find -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

# Compile it
# If you do need translations, leave off ENABLE_NLS= here and below
make ENABLE_NLS=

# Become root to install it
su

# Install it
make install prefix=/usr/local docdir=/usr/local/doc/dos2unix-7.4.0 \
mandir=/usr/local/man ENABLE_NLS=

# Make sure your non-root user can remove the source later
chown -R $(logname) .

# If you ever want to uninstall Dos2Unix, this should do it:
# (make uninstall as root should be enough, but the rest is just in case...)
