I'm running a windows-free environment, so I can't really help. Quite some time ago, I was very happy using "EDITPAD Lite".
To remove undesired characters from a file that go beyond the action of the dos2unix tool, there exist different tools and approaches, e.g.
, or a quick sed or awk script.
I made a small change to a UNIX script. When I tried to run it I received the following message:
/bin/ksh: ^M: not found
/bin/ksh: ^M: not found
/bin/ksh: ^M: not found
As ^M is a non printing character, I don't know how to discover where it is missing. How can I correct thiis... (2 Replies)
Hello all,
I have two files, that I suspect may contain hidden characters (EG, three spaces instead of a tab). Does anyone know of any tool that can display this (I have tried using diff, but I'm not quite sure it would do the job) (6 Replies)
Hello All,
I'm trying to parse through a file and display all the hidden characters, including all carriage and line returns. I usually use cat -v, but this doesn't display the carriage and line returns. Does anyone know how this can be done?
Thanks

Can anyone seem to know how to find out whether a UNIX text file has 'hidden' control characters?
Can I view them using 'vi' by some command line options?
If there are control characters in a text file which are invisible/hidden.. then how do I get rid of them?

I have a file with words that begin with character #. Whenver that character is found that word should be deleted throughout the file. How do I do that in VIM.

iswpunct
ISWPUNCT(3) Linux Programmer's Manual ISWPUNCT(3)NAME
iswpunct - test for punctuation or symbolic wide character
SYNOPSIS
#include <wctype.h>
int iswpunct(wint_t wc);
DESCRIPTION
The iswpunct() function is the wide-character equivalent of the ispunct(3) function. It tests whether wc is a wide character belonging to
the wide-character class "punct".
The wide-character class "punct" is a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", and therefore also a subclass of the wide-character
class "print".
The wide-character class "punct" is disjoint from the wide-character class "alnum" and therefore also disjoint from its subclasses "alpha",
"upper", "lower", "digit", "xdigit".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "print", the wide-character class "punct" is disjoint from the wide-character class "cntrl".
Being a subclass of the wide-character class "graph", the wide-character class "punct" is disjoint from the wide-character class "space"
and its subclass "blank".
RETURN VALUE
The iswpunct() function returns nonzero if wc is a wide-character belonging to the wide-character class "punct". Otherwise it returns
zero.
CONFORMING TO
C99.
NOTES
The behavior of iswpunct() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
This function's name is a misnomer when dealing with Unicode characters, because the wide-character class "punct" contains both punctuation
characters and symbol (math, currency, etc.) characters.
