Remove DOS-style line endings from files

[aaaaalbert]

Lots of files in the clearinghouse code base have DOS-style line endings. Try egrep -rl $'\r\n'$ . in the repo.

To streamline the appearance of our code base, let's run all of the text files through dos2unix or col(but not the binary files).

Should i use the below until and regex to convert files:-
egrep -rlI $'\r\n'$ | xargs dos2unix

You can try this on your working copy, and then see if no DOS-style linebreaks remain. (Keep in mind the usual forking, branching, sending of pull request.)

Sorry for the erroneous regexp. Use grep -rl "^M" . instead.
This is not a literal "caret M" there, but Ctrl-V followed by Ctrl-M, the actual control code of the carriage return character \r.

Thanks albert.. I have ran dos2Unix on text files and the relevant changes has been made to file..

[asm582]

Ran the above regex in clearing house, seash, affix and nodemanager with grep for text files only. found that only a single text file in seash exists that has DOS format ..the file name is -
./modules/factoids/factoid.txt

Please check the other repos too.

What's the status of this? Did I overlook a PR? In a recent checkout, grep -rIl "^M" yields these files:
