I'm not sure about the underscore m but a common occurrence is that Windows
puts a CRLF character at the end of each line. It displays as ^M.
There are a number of different ways to get rid of this.
Open the file in vi and enter :g/^M/s///g Create the ^M by pressing
ctrl-v then enter.
Use a sed replacement script similar to the above syntax.
Change the Windows ftp client to not append anything.

FTP Win/2000 to Linux

I'm trying to ftp an ascii file from Windows/2000 to Suse 9.0.
On the Linux side, I edit the file "joe user.diskmap" and out on the
extreme right hand side, I have a column of upper case M with an
underscore under it.
Obvouisly, some sort of cr or lf character.
But I can't seem to have the file sent without it. The client doesn't
have many options:
ftp> help
Commands may be abbreviated. Commands are:
! delete literal prompt send
? debug ls put status
append dir mdelete pwd trace
ascii disconnect mdir quit type
bell get mget quote user
binary glob mkdir recv
verbose
bye hash mls remotehelp
cd help mput rename
close lcd open rmdir
I can send the file up to VM without the extra character. When I send
a file from CMS to Linux, I also get the character. It seems that the
character might be put in by the FTP daemon.
I am using vsFTPd 1.2.1 on Linux. Obvious that there is an option in
the vsftpd.conf file, but nothing stands out. Does anyone know the fix
to this yet?
Thanks
