RE: Substitute command on vi
This is a good vi incantation (NB The ^V is only there to allow you to put in the ^M. The ^V doesnt show in the final command line, so dont panic that you cant see it) :g/^V^M/s///g ie g/^V^M/ - find a ^M (any one will do, you dont need to be at the file start) s/// - substitute nothing for the ^M just found g - do this to all other ^M's mjt -- Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex...

You might wanna give dos2unix a try: /usr/local/bin/dos2unix The command :%s/^M//g insn't have success. Is this a shift+6 M, or a ctrl+V ctrl+M? The last one should work. -- Riemer PalstraAmsterdam, The Netherlands [EMAIL PROTECTED]http://www.palstra.com/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The command :%s/^M//g insn't have success. The command looks fine, except for a tiny detail: Make sure you use ^V ^M to insert a *literal* ^M character in the match pattern, instead of two different characters '^' and 'M'. Then it should work. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
