Yes , they are literally "^A".These characters appears in the file
when a ascii file was ftp'ed to a unix machine in binary mode.
I don't have that ascii file now , so i have to correct this
file in unix.

This might sound like a stupid question, but are they literally "^A", etc.,
or do you mean the character created by pressing ^A? Because if it's the
latter, then you might be able to do something like this:
my $string =~ s/\eA//gi;
(According to 'perldoc perlre' '\e' denotes an escape)

hi all,
I have control characters ( like ^A , ^M ) in my ascii input file
and I want to substitute them by space or just delete them.
Can anyone suggest a regex for this substitution ???
Thanks
