Yep. Paul Chitescu's version lying utility is perfect for proving this.

You may want to try PFE. My favourite editor is WinVi
(http://www.winvi.de/) - however, there is no function for converting
line breaks (well, at least in the menus); WinVi leaves line-breaks
as-is. It supports <CR>, <LF>, <CR><LF> and <RS> (1Eh) BTW and indicates
the line break type in its status bar. If you need to convert a DOS text
to Unix format, you can use ":%s/\%0d\%0a/\%0a/" - yep, the thing is vi
compatible. Since it also supports files of nearly unlimited size,
starts very fast (it only consists of a single executable, no runtime
DLLs and such) and has a hex mode, I use it as  all-round editor. There
are a few bugs in the hex mode (in combination with search and replace)
of the 16-bit version, but they're worked on at the moment.
