I have a binary file generating output by passing arguments in bash.when i open the output file in VI i can see that ^m is included in between most of lines,as a result when i pass this file to my java application it dosent parse the data properly.
Can anyone guide me how can i remove this automatically when file is created.I did achieve this by :%s/^m//g method.But i am looking for en efficient manner as i cant perform the same all time.
Even dos2unix dosent seem usefull as it dosent remove ^m from entire document.Only part of removed.
Any help will be appreciated.
