Removing ^M characters
hi

I have a perl script conv.pl. when i execute this file and direct i to log file I see lots of ^M characters in the log file. There is no ^M in conv.pl file. Log file is generated only after conv.pl is executed.
Please help as how to get rid of these.
This conv.pl is going to get schduled in crontab so I will have to get it fix before hand only and not after log file is created.

$> conv.pl > a.log



Thanks

pkcs1-conv

PKCS1-CONV(1)							   Nettle tools 						     PKCS1-CONV(1)

NAME

       pkcs1-conv - convert keys from PKCS#1 format to s-expression format

SYNOPSIS

       pkcs1-conv [{--private-rsa-key|--public-rsa-key|--public-key-info} [--base-64]] < FILE

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the pkcs1-conv command.  This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       pkcs1-conv converts private and public RSA keys from PKCS #1 format to sexp format.

OPTIONS

       This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-').

       By default pkcs1-conv expects a PEM-encapsulated RSA key on standard input, and will determine its type from the  Pre-Encapsulation  Bound-
       ary.  To convert a DER-encoded (non PEM-encoded) key, one of the first three options below must be used:

       --private-rsa-key
	      Specify  that a DER-encoded RSAPrivateKey, as defined by PKCS #1 (RFC 3447), and described in section A.1.2 of its appendix A, is to
	      be expected as input.

       --public-rsa-key
	      Specify that a DER-encoded RSAPublicKey, as defined by PKCS #1 (RFC 3447), and described in section A.1.1 of its appendix A,  is	to
	      be expected as input.

       --public-key-info
	      Specify  that a DER-encoded SubjectPublicKeyInfo, as defined by PKCS #6, and described in section A.1 of its appendix A, encapsulat-
	      ing an RSAPublicKey, is to be expected as input.

       --base-64
	      Together with --private-rsa-key, --public-rsa-key, or --public-key-info, specify that base64 encoding is applied on top of  the  DER
	      encoding.

       -?, --help
	      Show summary of options (not implemented).

       -V, --version
	      Show version of program.

DIAGNOSTICS

       pkcs1-conv  will  complain and exit with a status of 1 if the input doesn't match expectations. In PEM mode (when no option is used), if no
       PEM block is found, pkcs1-conv will output nothing but exit with a zero status.

EXAMPLES

       $ openssl genrsa -out privkey.pem
       $ pkcs1-conv < privkey.pem > privkey.sexp
       $ openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -outform DER -out privkey.der
       $ openssl rsa -in privkey.pem -outform DER -pubout -out pubkey.der
       $ pkcs1-conv --rsa-private-key < privkey.der > privkey.sexp
       $ pkcs1-conv --public-key-info < pubkey.der > pubkey.sexp
