Hello list,
I have a few php config files that have the windows delimiter
character in them ('^M') that I would like to get rid of. I'm trying
to use sed to do it, and for some reason I am not having any luck.
Here's the line that I'm trying to use:
#sed -i '.bak' 's/^M//g' config.php
However when I have a look at the backup file that's been created with
this command, it looks like there was no effect:
<?php ^M/* Global Variables */^M if(!defined('DS'))^M
define('DS',DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);^M^M
if(!defined("_MAINSITEPATH_"))^M
define("_MAINSITEPATH_",dirname(__FILE__).DS);^M
I was wondering is someone had a tip on how to run this command
effectively in this situation.
Thanks!
tim
Maybe you can use /usr/ports/converters/dosunix.
Usage:
dosunix INPUTFILE OUTPUTFILE
DosUnix converts files from DOS text format to Unix text format
by replacing each carriage return & newline pair with a single
newline character.
does not do backups, though.
