One of several ways is Vi the file in Unix (assuming you try to run it there) then
Shift : 1,$s/<press Ctrl - v> M//g This will remove all Ctrl-M in the file You can script this very easy Saludos Javier Javier Nunez Principal Systems Support Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1 (480) 375-6263 DHL ITSC Americas ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Mon Jun 25 13:40:43 2007 Subject: control M's Hi everyone, I wrote a cgi script in PERL which won't execute. I'm told it's because I have control M's at the end of each line, and that this happens when editing programs in Windows (which I do, with Notepad). I found a free program on the web (http://www.scriptarchive.com/scripts/snippets/rm_cont_m.pl) which claims to remove them. I ran it and uploaded the new program, but it still doesn't work. It may be that there's another problem with the script, then again, maybe the control M's are still there. I'd like to rule out the latter. Can anyone advise me on dealing with this? How can I remove them? How can I tell if they're there or not? How can I type up a script so that they never appear in the first place, etc.? Thank you, Chris ________________________________ Boardwalk for $500? In 2007? Ha!
