I will give that a try when I get home tonight. I have a small problem in
that the switch program uses the TR command and when I try to use tr
as a external command from the switch program it calls the internal
tr command, but I will just put it in a little script and call the script and
that should take care of it. Can not figure out why sed is not getting rid
of the LF... It sticks the CR in there but for some reason I can not get it
to remove the LF. I must be doing something wrong.
