Probably not. You don't want to blindly convert every file under the
start location -- what if you have actual binaries? Or you only want to
convert foo/CVS/* and foo/bar/CVS/*, but not foo/* or foo/bar/* ?
Using 'find' to create a filelist, and piping the result to 'xargs
dos2unix' is the right answer, here.
