Your post is a bit confused. I'm not sure what you're after. I don't know what 
Wordwise is, or a BBC keyboard.

Can I assume that a BBC keyboard is actually a BBC Micro computer which they 
used to use in UK schools, and that Wordwise is a wordprocessor which runs on 
it? Can I further assume that you want to get files created in Wordwise 
editable under KDE, and the only thing stopping you is the CR/LF issue?

If all that's correct so far, does your question boil down to "how to I 
convert a text file with CR line endings into a text file with LF line 
endings"? If not, give us a bit more to go on!
