Unix format in gVim
I need to be very careful to keep ^M characters out of files.
In gVim, I can change the file format to Unix easily enough, but is there any way to make Unix the default format?
I can see "startup options" in the menu, but this takes me to some meaningless config file. I believe my config value should be added in here, but I don't know what I need to add
Thanks

I have a linux Enterprise Server Version 3 (ES) . It does not have Gvim on it. Can someone tell me how I can get Gvim on it please. I have spent a fair bit of time researching this and have not figured it out. I am probably missing something simple.

filetraq
FILETRAQ(8) System Manager's Manual FILETRAQ(8)
NAME
filetraq - keep track of changes in config files.
SYNOPSIS
filetraq --help
filetraq [filelist] [backupdir]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the filetraq command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
FileTraq is a shell script that reads a list of files to watch, runs diff against each file and its backup, and reports any discrepancies,
along with keeping a dated backup of the original.
It's designed to be run as a cron job.
OPTIONS
This command has two possible invocations, one with one option:
--help Show summary of options and the default values of the config file and the backup directory.
and other with no options, a config file or a config file and the backupdir.
The debian version has been modified to read the /etc/default/filetraq configuration file, that lets the administrator change the default
values of the config file ( file ), the backup directory ( backupdir ), the diff options used to print the filetraq output ( diffopts ,
e.g. -p -C 1 or -u ) and the diff order ( difforder , either newold (FileTraq default) or oldnew (traditional Unix default)).
SECURITY
FileTraq is not well tested or hardened. It runs as root, but all of its config files should only be accessible by root. No security
holes are known at this time, but please be careful.
BUGS
Right now, it doesn't take care of its backups very well. The dated backups will accumulate in the backups directory, bounded only by
diskspace.
It only handles text files, it isn't a Tripwire replacement for use with system binaries.
FILES
/etc/filetraq.conf
/etc/default/filetraq
/var/lib/filetraq
SEE ALSO
diff(1), cron(8).
