Hi there How do i remove the carriage returns in perl scripts that have been saved as Macperl cgi, but that have unix <cr> (I get an error:# Illegal character \012 (carriage return). File 'grosbobo:webstar:calendar:calendar.cgi'; Line 1 # (Maybe you didn't strip carriage returns after a network transfer?) and sure enough, horrible <cr> at the begining of every line any suggestions? The script is on a Mac accessed via VNC (slow connection) from a PC. Uploaded using LeechFTP The script is Matt Kruse's calendar, if anyone fancies trying to get it to work for me :) and send a binhexed archive :D the calendar is at http://www.mattkruse.com/scripts/calendar/index.html many thanks Nicholas Horwood # ===== Want to unsubscribe from this list? # ===== Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to macperl-request@macperl.org
