I generated some text files working with Get-Acl Powershell, but I did not know how to get Powershell to do some advanced features. (Basically, I wanted to the Select-String to include the next 2 lines and see whether a specific group was in that list. And maybe some exclusions.) So, I copied the files over to my Linux home to check there.

Eine Datei vom DOS-Format ins Unix-Format konvertieren #linux #debian #server #unix #dos2unix

Das DOS-Format von Windows hat am ende einer Zeile immer ein sogenanntes inverse M. Dieses sieht unter Linux dann aus wie ein ^M und macht kein Return. Zum ändern dafür gibt es 3 Möglichkeiten.

Die einfachste Möglichkeit ist das Paket dos2unix. [bash]sudo apt-get install dos2unix dos2unix meinedatei.txt[/bash]

Zwei weitere Möglichkeiten sind VIM und SED. In Vim nutzt man den Befehl: :%s/^M//g Bei…

If I open files I created in Windows, the lines all end with ^M. How do I delete them all in once?

The comment about getting the ^M to appear is what worked for me. Merely typing “^M” in my vi got nothing (not found). The Ctrl-V Ctrl-M sequence did it perfectly though.

:%s/\r+//g

In Vim, that strips all carriage returns, and leaves only newlines.

This is an awesome command I found yesterday to get rid of all those ^M produced by your coworker opening unix files on a PC.

This is how you convert those "corrupted" text files back to sane linux/unix readable files.

Usage: dos2unix <filepath>

Installation: sudo port install dos2unix 

The formula for dos2unix was recently updated to version 3.2.

To install dos2unix on your Mac, open your Terminal application and run the following commands;

brew update brew install dos2unix

 The updated formula is as follows:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

require 'formula' class Dos2unix < Formula url 'http://sourceforge.net/projects/dos2unix/files/dos2unix/3.2/dos2unix-3.2.tar.gz' md5 'db3902feba8a4bae26e9a1bd27c7ce53' homepage 'http://dos2unix.sourceforge.net/' def install # we don't use the Makefile as it doesn't optimize system "#{ENV.cc} #{ENV.cflags} dos2unix.c -o dos2unix" bin.install %w[dos2unix] ln_sf bin+'dos2unix', bin+'mac2unix' man1.install %w[mac2unix.1 dos2unix.1] end end

Currently dos2unix has no dependencies in homebrew.

Other *nix and some linux distributions used to supply commands dos2unix and unix2dos (sometimes called dostounix/unixtodos).

They are not present in modern Ubuntu distributions. However, Ubuntu has a pair of utilities: fromdos and todos, which could be installed with
