What you want to do is translate the DOS line-ending, 0x0d 0x0a, into a UNIX line-ending, 0x0a. In terms of 'tr' characters, this is translating '\r\n' into '\n'. cat <filename> | tr -d '\r' Try # 'hd <filename' # 'cat <filename> | tr -d '\r' | hd' to see the difference. Look at 'man ascii' and 'man tr' To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
