I always use tr(1) to do that, eg say your Microsloth file is myfile.txt do this: tr -d "\r" < myfile.txt > myfile Then you have a file called 'myfile' without the extra ^M-s which are Carriage Return (CR) characters identified with the "\r" in the command. You can also use dos2unix if you have it installed. But tr comes with FreeBSD by default.
