DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #45 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
Troubled by DOS-FORMAT TEXT FILES? There are many ways
to get rid of the extra ^M characters. In VIM, try
    :set ff=unix
before saving the file (":opt" for more info); or, use perl:
    perl -pi.dos -e 's/\cM//g' filename*pattern.txt
("perldoc perlrun" for more info.)
