I use something called "Odd Jobs" to do this. It's a shareware
program that lets you create little file-processing "joblets" (droplets)
to do a variety of tasks. Several joblets come with Odd Jobs
and it is pretty easy to make new joblets. A joblet to convert line
endings to Mac format is included, and can be easily modified to
make joblets converting to Unix and DOS formats.
I have no idea how well Odd Jobs works under OS X, if at all. I
have used it without problems under OS 8.1 and OS 8.6 (mostly the
latter).
No connection to the author of Odd Jobs, just a satisfied user of some
of his software. You can get it at <http://www.trevorrow.com/oddjobs/>.
