I have large (~111M) .csv data files exported from a Microsoft Access database. Each file is one large block of text using ^M (carriage return) embedded as the line separator.
'sed' is probably the best tool to translate that control character to a newline (\n) but I don't know how to write '^M' so sed recognizes it as a single character. In emacs it displays colored cyan rather than white. A web search told me that ^M is equivalent to the linux \r, but not how to specify it for sed or emacs. Pointers needed.
