Re: vi editor related question
Consider using a different editor in windows like UltraEdit. It can save in unix format and supports syntax hi-lighting. Better yet, remove windows from the equation. :) There are a lot of nice text editors for UNIX like OSes including xemacs, gedit (gnome), kate (kde), etc. I do understand the temptation to use a specific editor though. For large class assignments (C++), I often work on my laptop using xcode (apple). Fortunately, Apple switched to the winning team (UNIX) for line termination with OSX.

Then, there are bunch of ^M sign at the end of each line. Does anyone know why this is happening? Microsoft has chosen (for a long time now) to ignore the standard line feed, instead replacing LF with CR/LF. There are lots of ways to deal with this. Personally, I finally just picked a 'Nix editor that grokked it and automatically converts it to LF. I can't imagine that vi couldn't do this; but I don't use it and therefore I don't know. But there's hope ... just a pinch of Google ... here's a freebie: http://icarus.weber.edu/home/bob/cs213/rm_ctr_m.html And, does anyone can tell me how to avoid this kind of things?

And, does anyone can tell me how to avoid this kind of things? Use an editor on Windows that saves the file as w/ Unix line ending. Or, use an editor on FreeBSD, like vim 6 from the ports, that will hide/change '^M' characters.
