C# - how to remove ctrl M characters when transferring files from windows to unix using Tectia?

Question

In a C# module, I want to transfer files from Windows to Unix using Tectia. But the problem is when these files are transferred(Ascii or Binary mode both) and opened using VI editor we get ^M characters. I searched about this but the solutions are to remove these ^M characters after the files are transferred using utilites. Is there any way that these ^M characters do not appear in the first place. Is there any option to have a workaround in code before sending these files?

Answer 1

How I was able to remove it in vi editor:

• After :%s/ then press ctrl+V then ctrl+M. This will give you ^M
• Then //g (will look like: :%s/^M ) press Enter should get all removed.

Good luck!

If you just need to remove the ^M characters (not replace them with \n):

sed -i -e 's/\r//g' yourfile.txt

If you want to replace them with \n:

sed -i -e 's/\r/\n/g' yourfile.txt
