Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Needing a line feed for windows app Post 302145196 by V3l0 on Tuesday 13th of November 2007 06:30:36 AM

On U*X systems, end of line is LF (Line Feed, 0x0A).
On M$ systems, end of line is CR+LF (Carriage Return, Line Feed, 0x0D, 0x0A).

To make your U*X text file compatible, use the command :

sed -e 's/$/^M/' unixfile > msfile

On command line or in vi, the ^M character can be generated by ^V^M sequence.
