:) Thats what this was: $(locate dos2unix | head -1) file1 > file2 or $ sed 's/\015//g' file1 > file2 But I would like to change it a lil: $ [ -z $(locate dos2unix | head -1) ] && sed 's/\015//g' file1 > file2 || dos2unix file1 > file2 This should be able to tell whether or not dos2unix is even there. Lets just hope there isn't a man page only installed without the binary. :) - Jim At 09:57 PM 6/7/2001 -0500, Andrew Hesford wrote: >On Fri, Jun 08, 2001 at 10:17:51AM +0800, bsdnewbie bsdnewbie wrote: > > Is there any tool can eliminate "^M" in text files? > > Thanks in advance. > > > > best regards, > > steven > >Everybody comes up with these home-brewed solutions. > >Has everyone forgotten about the old "unix2dos" and "dos2unix" >utilities?
