It works with 
vim -c "edit ++ff=unix" readme.txt, as I learned from James' Posting :-)

Strange. In my vimrc it works:
---snip---
filetype plugin on
edit ++ff=unix
---snap---
I have: VIM - Vi IMproved 6.1 ...
Included patches: 1-18
But, what is strange to me and not what I want - now I don't see the file 
info, like: "readme.txt" [dos] 147L, 6263C
in the status line at the bottom of the screen but in the shell after 
closing the file.
