Need To Insert Carriage Return

Author	Message
Larry Ba #1 / 7	Need To Insert Carriage Return I need to insert a carriage return (hex 0d) before the newline (hex 0a) of every record in a file of 80 col records. I have looked at sed and awk but so far no luck, maybe someone out there has the answer. Thanks.... -- /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ LARRY BACA, marst2!lbaca DAASO-VWA AIS, DEFENSE AUTOMATIC ADDRESSING OFFICE, WESTERN DIVISION DDTC TRACY, TRACY CA. 95376-5057 AUTOVON 462-9391 COMERCIAL 832-9391

Tom Christians #2 / 7	Need To Insert Carriage Return From the keyboard of fmd3201@marst2 (Larry Baca): :I need to insert a carriage return (hex 0d) before the newline (hex 0a) :of every record in a file of 80 col records. : :I have looked at sed and awk but so far no luck, maybe someone out there :has the answer. Thanks.... sed -e 's/$/^M/' should suffice, but your shell may not let you pass in the ^M directly, you you'd have to put it in a file. perl -pe 's/$/\r/' would also work, and wouldn't have that trouble. --tom

Orville R. Weyri #3 / 7	Need To Insert Carriage Return Does your system have a filter called unix2dos ? I'm not sure whether it is an add-on or comes standard. The last two systems I have used (SunOS and Microport) have had it. (But the SunOS had a PC networked, and the Microport also has Merge installed). -------------------------------------- **************************** Orville R.

Tony J Yeat #5 / 7	Need To Insert Carriage Return To embed control characters and/or tabs (for some reason tcsh thinks tabs are 'special') in a UNIX command line I precede the character in question with a Control-v (i.e. ^v^M in the above). I found this out sort of by accident, its very useful. I use it in tcsh but it also works for ksh and prob. sh and csh too.

Assuming that you mean GNU emacs (I don't know about others such as CCA emacs), no, ^V does not quote in emacs, it pages the file forward one screen. ^Q is the quoting character in emacs. -- Jonathan Kamens USnail: MIT IS/Athena 11 Ashford Terrace j...@Athena.MIT.EDU Allston, MA 02134 Office: 617-253-8085 Home: 617-782-0710
