 Stripping ^M from your files
Author: Taz 
Date:   11-02-10 03:17

My contribution to this great site based on hours of trial an error for that annoying ^M added to conf files ftp'd from windows. The solutions on the page didn't work but this finally did:
cat somefile | col -bx > somefile
you can modify the flags to taste.
