Anyone know how to rip ^M (dos line return) using sed?
tr -d '\r' will remove ^Ms from a stream.

without reading the manual you might try 's/\r//g' this is definitely
not portable, if not use hex characters \015 from

if it's cos you're trying to use a dos file then just
run 'dos2unix' over the file (and vice versa use 'unix2dos').

What the hell is that null doing there?
what's wrong with it?
I expected dos2unix to just convert \r\n to a single \n.
I don't expect to get a null in a text file.
