Incompatible line breaks when working with windows or mac files?

No problem!

Win&Mac -> Unix fast and clean:

$meinfile = "meinfile.csv";
$meinfile_inhalt = file_get_contents($meinfile);
$meinfile_inhalt = preg_replace('/\r\n?/', "\n", $meinfile_inhalt);
$corrmeinfile = "meinfile_neu.csv";
$fp = fopen ($corrmeinfile,"w");
fwrite($fp,$meinfile_inhalt);
fclose($fp);
echo "line ends replaced";

Unix ->Win

$infile = "infile.csv";
$outfile = "infile_windows.csv";
$contents = file_get_contents($infile);
$contents = str_replace("\n", "\r\n", $contents);
file_put_contents($outfile, $contents);
echo "Line endings converted from Unix to Windows format.\n";

Enjoy :)
