[SunHELP] data manipulation

[Van Niekerk, Ronelle]

Hi guys,

I'm writing a script and have come across an irritating problem. THe scripts
accepts data eg: word, in from a tcp port and writes it to a file as:
word^M.

I know you can't see the ^M when you cat or more the file - but it is still
there.

Is there a command or environment setting that I can use that will tell my
script to ignore this?

thanks in advance.
