I use an old server without dos2unix and I would like to convert windows files to unix files. I am unfortunately not the admin so I can't install dos2unix. The tr method seems to be the only one that works.
cp script _p4 && tr -d '\r' < _p4 > script && rm _p4
Are there any easier methods to do this? I have a really hard time either remembering this or searching for this.

Where "x0D" is the ASCII code for \r.
