Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
As a result of my original request, I now have half a dozen ways of doing this using php, perl, python and tr :) I guess this is sort of on topic because there may be PHP programmers who want to do this without writing a PHP script that probably has to be run by a web server. Anyway, someone on the Python list suggested this variety of tr: tr -d '\015' infile outfile I haven't tested this. 015 is the numeric code for \r.

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
You could replace if by ASCII code (^M is actually a representation of ASCII 013, the CR character, thanks to http://www.mindspring.com/~jc1/serial/Resources/ASCII.html for the ASCII lookup table.). This should fix it (untested) ? $chrnumber = 13; //this is the ascii code for ^M $nicestring = str_replace(chr($chrnumber),(removed M was here),$badstring); echo($nicestring); ? where $nicestring is the output, $chrnumber contains the ascii code for ^M, and the input (original) string is $badstring.

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
Perl apparently also works very nice for this
open (FILE, filename):
open (NEWFILE, filename);
WHILE (FILE) {
chomp;
print NEWFILE $_
}
close (FILE);
close(NEWFILE);
this should take care of ^M

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
'chomp' removes the end-of-line character(s) from its input, which is
different from doing an EOL conversion (which is what the OP was after).
The result of the below perl would be to concatenate all lines together as
one.

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
print NEWFILE $_ . \n;
Then :P
This isn't a perl list, it's off topic. Just thought it might help if I
added this to the pool Let's rather not go into a in depth discussion
about it... I'm no perl guru either.

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
I get this when running that command: tr: only one string may be given when deleting without squeezing repeats I looked at the tr man pages and it didn't help much.

Re: [PHP] Removing ^M
I don't think tr expects to receive a filename on the command line. Try: tr -d \r oldfile.html newfile.html miguel On Sat, 8 Jun 2002, Steve Buehler wrote: I get this when running that command: tr: only one string may be given when deleting without squeezing repeats I looked at the tr man pages and it didn't help much.
