Removing Carriage Return and or line feed from a file
Hello I'm trying to write a shell script which can remove a carriage return and/or line feed from a file, so the resulting file all ends up on one line.
So, I begin with a file like this
text in file!<CR>
line two!<CR>
line three!<CR>
END!<CR>
And I want to end up with a file which looks like this:
text in file!line two!line three!END!
Any ideas on how I might tackle this example?
