newline
I have an old file originally created in vi but read and saved by a word processor at some point.
I have ^Ms and know how to substitute them for anything I wish but I still only have one long line when viewed in vi. So I suppose I need to substitute a newline for each ^M but I don't know the code to use. Shouldn't make any difference but I'm using vi in MAC OSX Leopard. |

i) Open this file in some word processor or advanced text editor. Select "unix newlines", "unix charset", "unix style" or something like that in the "Save as"-dialog when saving.
ii) use some script like dos2unix (dostounix, dos2ux, ..) |
