Thanks for sharing this!!!!

I was having some issues with the tmp file not being found. I ended up contacting the string and then run the code. Here is what I ended up doing in the end.

for x
do
    echo "Converting $x"
    temp_file+="tmp."$x
    tr -d '\015' < "$x" > temp_file
    mv temp_file "$x"
done
