and a few more tips to accomplish this form LOST (http://lost.sourceforge.net)

####[ GNU/Linux One Stanza Tip (LOST) ]#######################

Sub : DOS to Unix conversion (#1) LOST #025

Method #1: To convert a DOS text file to Unix so that extra
ASCII 13 does not show up when viewing / editing a DOS text
file : $cat filename.dos | tr -d '\015' > filename.unix

Method #2: using recode (if installed)
To convert a DOS text file to Unix so that the extra ASCII 13
does not show up, you can add the following in /etc/profile
or .profile (IF recode package is installed ...)

alias unix2dos='recode lat1..ibmpc'
alias dos2unix='recode ibmpc..lat1'

Sub : DOS to Unix conversion (#3) LOST #137

DOS text files with ^M can be cleared by pico editor. Load the
dos text file in pico, Do a small edit job on it. (e.g. place
a space and delete it again) .. Save .. Quit. All ^Ms gone !!

Need to remove all those ^M characters from a DOS file? Try :
$col -bx < dosfile > newfile

Sub : DOS to Unix conversion (#5) LOST #217

In vim editor, it is just a matter of setting file-format (ff)
The steps are :
a) vim dosfile.txt b) :set ff=unix c) :wq

If you have vim editor installed, the following script will do
a DOS to Unix conversion:
#!/bin/sh # Save d2u, chmod +x d2u
vim -c ":set ff=unix" -c ":wq" $1 # Usage: d2u filename.txt
