This is just a handful of programs that translate textfile line endings between the conventions used by the systems I use: Unix-like systems (LF), Mac OS (CR), and DOS & Windows (CRLF).
FreeBASIC
This is done without using any libraries. (FB can use various regex libs, including PCRE.)

PowerBASIC
(This is partly a translation of the FreeBASIC version.)
Unlike FreeBASIC (or many other languages), PowerBASIC can't easily discover the name that the program was called as without making an API call. I just found out that PowerBASIC 9 has a new object called EXE which serves pretty much the same purpose as VB's App object. [shrug] Not gonna change this now.
Also unlike FreeBASIC, when reading in a line from a text file via LINE INPUT #, only CRLF is recognized as EOL.

END FUNCTIONShell Script
Neither of these actually work... I'm terrible with regexes in general and sed in particular. These are here to give someone a starting point. (If someone who's better than me on this sorta thing wants to fix it, I wouldn't complain...) I didn't try very hard because pretty much all modern Unix-like distros (including the ones I use) include dos2unix/unix2dos, fromdos/todos, or something similar.
This script decides what to do based on the script's name: source2target. (This is handled by case.) The translation is performed by sed.
case $0 in
dos2unix)
sed s/\r//g $1>$1.unix
;;
dos2mac)
sed s/\n//g $1>$1.mac
;;
mac2dos)
sed s/\r/\r\n/g $1>$1.dos
;;
mac2unix)
sed s/\r/\n/g $1>$1.unix
;;
unix2dos)
sed s/\n/\r\n/g $1>$1.dos
;;
unix2mac)
sed s/\n/\r/g $1>$1.mac
;;
esac
An alternative would be to make this rather generic. It could be called from, and could be called similar to this:
from dos to unix file.txt
...which would write the output to "file.txt.unix".
case $1 in
dos)
first=\r\n

mac)
first=\r

unix)
first=\n
