I use many different machines at work, each with different versions of o/s's and installed applications. Sed in vi is particularly inconvenient in the sense that sometimes it will accept the "\r" as a carriage return, sometimes not. Same thing with "\n". For instance, if I have a list of hosts that are all on one line separated by a space then I need them in line-by-line format. On some machines I can do this in vi:
or
I don't know if the editor will accept \r or \n until I try. On some machines it will treat either as a regular character by inserting an "r" or "n" in place of the spaces. Is this relative to my version of vi, o/s, sed, or all? I'm assuming \r and \n are ASCII characters. Is there a chance the ASCII chars are defined differently depending on the o/s? (I thought it was a standard) How can I determine in advance which host will accept \r or \n as carriage return and newline, respectively, before I start vi?
I do not have the authorisation to upgrade the o/s or editors to the latest versions.
