<p>file is the file(s) to process. The modification is done in-place,
with the original file stored with a .bak extension.
<p>Alternatively you can use the <url url="/cgi/man.cgi?tr"
name="tr(1)"> command:
<verb>
tr -d '\r' &lt; dos-text-file &gt; unix-file
</verb>
<p>dos-text-file is the file containing DOS text while
unix-file will contain the converted output. This can
be quite a bit faster than using perl.
