On the PC, I like TextPad best. It handles PC,Mac,Unix files almost exactly
like BBEdit.

But when I need just to convert any text files between Mac & PC, I prefer
to use the venerable CRLF on the Mac. It's a small droplet that converts
file(s) between Mac, PC and Unix formats with minimum of fuss.

There are similar applications for Windoze 95/98 as well. Check out the
Win95/98 section of the Simtel.Net archive. Here are some examples:
