What you could really do with is dos2unix(1) that comes with Solaris and Linux but not with AIX IIRC, so instead you can use sed:

dos2unix:
Code:
sed -i 's/\r//' file

unix2dos:
Code:
sed -i 's/\n/\n\r/' file

from: UNIX BASH scripting: Linux flip command - alternative of dos2unix,unix2dos

or

dos2unix:
Code:
$ sed 's/^M$//'  input.txt > output.txt

unix2dos:
Code:
$ sed 's/$'"/`echo \\\r`/"   input.txt > output.txt

from: Howto: UNIX or Linux convert DOS newlines CR-LF to Unix/Linux format

The dos2unix examples will get rid of the carriage returns for you I will leave a scripting guru to work out the removal of particular unwanted line feeds.
