In the old days with real vi, you would: :%s/^v^m// to get rid of them, but vim doesn't like that.
It depends on how Vim recognizes the file. If Vim displays the file as a DOS file, it will hide the ^M and you can't search for it. If Vim displays the file as a unix file, it will show the ^M at the end of the line and you can search and replace it with the command shown above.
Hey, thanks for all of the info on DOS and Unix file editing and all the things that CAN go wrong if you are NOT careful.
So I have been careful to stay consistant. As much as I can....
I have found that if I install CentOS on all my machines that used to run windows ... I have a fairly consistent UNIX only set of text files ...
Work in progress!
Just one of many suggestions :)
And actually the one that is in my target sights.
There are still a number of important decision points:
Do I actually maintain my NT domain as I have been planing, or do I just switch to NFS?
How will I support printing if I punt on NetBios services?
The death of Eudora? Or should I attempt WINE? Evolution of Thunderbird?
I am actually within a short step to moving into the Linux camp.....
