The Windows line endings (^M) can be easily removed with most editors. In ViM it is very easy.

To remove all windows line endings (and replace with nothing), type the following:

:%s/^V^M//g


(note that the ^V will not display).

Sometimes it is necessary to add a line break as well:

:%s/^V^M/\r/g
