Tried the same in the following. FIRST Try: tie( @lines, 'Tie::File', "$File" ) || die("can't open $File: $!"); local $/ = "\r\n"; chomp @lines; untie @lines; SECOND Try: my $content = ""; open IFILE, "$File" or die $!; while (<IFILE>) { $_ =~ s/\r//g; $content .= $_; } close(IFILE); open OFILE, ">$File" or die $!; print OFILE $content; close(OFILE); But it is not removing the ^M. After executing the above, I am seeing the ^M in vi Editor: "test.java" 12 lines, 333 characters //****************************************************^M // Copyright (c) 2009, Inc. ^M // All rights reserved. ^M //****************************************************^M ^M class Test ^M {^M public static void main(String[] args) ^M {^M System.out.println("Hello Test!");^M }^M }^M
