tlug: substituting a linefeed in vi

[Jim Schweizer <schweiz@example.com>]

Hi all,

I haven't had much luck figuring out how to substitute a DOS
carriage return with a new linefeed, ASCII code 10, in vi.
Something along the lines of

:1,$ s/^M/?/

where ? is the linefeed. Can this be done?

Thanks,

Jim S.
