Re: How to remove ^M character

[C Peter Biessener]

You can also use ASCII mode in ftp, it will translate the line ends for 
you.  BINARY mode is for programs and archive files (zip, tar, tgz, etc...)

Hi,


I ftp'd a file from windows to freebsd....not its every line has ^M at its
end.
Is there some command in vi (or some way) by whcih ^M can be removed.


You can use dos2unix(1) for that. There is also the complementary tool
unix2dos(1).
