It must be a problem with my Ubuntu-installation at home:
I tried in the office on a Redhat system: works as expected, no problem!
$ od -bc myfile does NOT show any \r in the output.
However, I'll give a try with dos2unix when I'm back at home.
Thank you for your help! I appreciate to learn from all these answers!

On the office-Linux (Redhat), od -bc didn't show any \r ,
but at home, there where a lot of this characters.
$ dos2unix resolved this problem.
Thank you very much!
Kind regards - Regis
