You can change teh line endings later.  Type `C-x RET f' and then, at
the prompt for a coding system, type the name of a coding system with
the "-dos" or "-unix" suffix.

For example, to convert a remote file to UTF-8 with Unix-style line
endings, you can visit the file in a buffer and type:

    C-x RET f utf-8-unix RET
