Hi
compile this just for fun to remove ^M
<snip>
#include <stdio.h>
main ()
{
FILE *fp , *fp_out ;
int c, lastc;
char filename[10];
char filename_out[10];
int cr = 13;
puts("Enter File Name to remove cr's");
gets(filename);
puts("Enter Filename to save as ");
gets(filename_out);
fp_out = fopen(filename_out,"w");
if ((fp = fopen(filename,"r")) == NULL)
{
puts("Can't open file ");
}
else {
while(( c = fgetc(fp)) != EOF) /* fetching chr by chr */
{
if (c == cr)
{
puts("found ");
}
else fputc(c,fp_out);
}
puts("closing file\n");
fclose(fp);
fclose(fp_out);
}
}
