Hi There, Just a small addition on the remarks : I don't know if you realy want this to automate, but "vi" can do it as well. Just type : :1,$s/[Ctrl + v] [Ctrl + m]//g The [Ctrl + v] makes you able to type in an escape character. Most of all the [Ctrl + m] (^M) is bothering you. :) I know, I know. It's beginners@perl and not beginners@unix. Just want to help. Good Luck !!
