Try cat -v filename In vi, in command mode you can do: : set list and all the 'funny' characters will be displayed. Do: : set nolist to make the file appear normal. Personally whenever I come across an MS-dos file on Unix, I first check it in vi with the :set list command and then I do a vi command like: :%s/<CTRL>v<CTRL>M//g This is a substitute command. The % sign means apply the command to the whole file s means substitute. / is the delimiter <CTRL>v means dont interpret the next keystroke <CTRL>M is the 'funny' character you want to get rid of. In this case it is control M, though you may find something else in your particuliar file. g means do the command globally ie do it as many times as necessary on each line. Of course if it all goes wrong, you can type u in command mode and the change will be undone :-) Hope this helps. regards, John Kelly - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
