Files:  Getting rid of ^M at the end of lines in text files


Q.  I've got a file that was sent to me from a DOS machine, and there's a
    ^M at the end of all the lines.  How do I remove them?

A.  Try:

        flip -m filename.txt

    ...to make a file MS-DOS-compatible <CR/LF> at the end of end line,
    and:

        flip -u filename.txt

    to make the file UNIX-compatible (<LF> at the end of each line.
