Guys,
I have a little problem that I don't seem to be able to nut
out.
I have a file that's being processed by Perl that has a bunch of
"^@" symbols in it. This is the "Control-at" character.
I want to expunge the file of all the "^@" symbols.
I know I can use the ^V function in vi to print these but it just doesn't work
for this particular character - I can't get vi to print this character in my
script!
I would use "chr()" if I thought I knew what the literal string for
a ^@ was but I don't and there's no info on the net I can find either.
Can someone please enlighten me as to what I need to do to to rid myself
of these ^@ symbols?
