I use mcedit constantly, running it on an OS X 10.5.8 terminal to numerous remote redhat 9 linux machines from within mc, and on occasion invoked as mcedit (which I presume, as per the docs, is just mc -e.).
On occasion, I run into a file with ^M at the end of a line in MCEDIT. I can delete these one at a time if I position the cursor right on them. I have tried many things to attempt and use the F4 global search and replace, but nothing seems to work in the first field, the search field. I would leave the replace field empty, because I want them gone. Regular expressions - no. ^M, no. The format string replace... I don't even understand HOW you would use that to find a control character. %015, no. \015, no. \r, no. %13, no. %0D, no. 0x0D, no. [^M], no. There's a [^] field at the end of the line, but I can't seem to get to it with tab, and the mouse flat out does nothing in an mcedit pane. I've been to the documentation (hah!) and I've searched using Google. Nothing. I know I can use sed, etc., to do this, but I don't always have execute privileges in the directories I'm working in, because I'm in remotely via SSH in one pane - the filesystem is remote. Could someone take pity on me and tell me how it's supposed to work? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
