another tip: the way to deal with dos eol files:

tr -d '\r' < badfile > gudfile

and if you have a directory of them just do this (assuming you're
using something sh-like, if not just type sh first):

for f in */foo/*; do
tr -d '\r' < $f > $f.tmp
mv $f.tmp $f
done

(and you can exit out of sh if you had to run it by typing exit)
