Re: [ilugd] Removing ^M from text files in vi
What can be the possible reason for this how can i stop this from happening how to get back my code without ^M? In vim do :%s/^M//g ^M is not literal, use CTRL-g CTRL-m to get ^M. regards, Nishant Hi, Use the dos2unix utility. (Unix Text File Format Converter). '^M's can be usually seen when you created a file on Ms Windows but read it on Linux (vi editor etc). ~ Jagmeet ~ ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

^M is not literal, use CTRL-g CTRL-m to get ^M. Sorry for the typo, CTRL-v CTRL-m will give ^M. regards, Nishant -- Peace, Love and Compile the kernel. http://www.nishants.net Send instant messages to your online friends http://in.messenger.yahoo.com ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
Re: [ilugd] Removing ^M from text files in vi
Hi,
bit late in replying...but hope this might as well help.
We do it this way...
use the command from the top level to remove the ctrl char -
find . -name *.[c,h] -exec perl -pi -e 's/\cM//g' {} \;
Square Bracket contains [Type of files] so modify it as per your need.
regards

Hi,
I used Anjuta on Ubuntu 5.10 to write my code, committed it to the CVS
at Novell Forge. But when i try to download the code-tarball from the
CVS, i'm getting strange ^M characters at the end of every line in all
files.
Though i can remove them by deleting them one-by-ne, but this is
getting very annoying.
What can be the possible reason for this how can i stop this from
happening how to get back my code without ^M?

Not manually... Sakarshan, your answer can be a probablility. But what I dont understand is why this was never filed as a bug with them, or why no one pointed this to the Novell Forge guys? Almost all of the projects hosted there relate to Linux somehow many of the developers ought to be using linux... Anyways, i'll be filing this as a bug with the Novell forge guys. dos2unix seems to do the work fo me.
