Hi Tim, I tested that and I can't speak for all flavors of Linux/vi, but on my Oracle Enterprise Linux, ":set list" does not show the control characters. Also, dos2unix will get rid of the control characters without having to remember that horrible vi command ;-)

The "vi" command "set list" will do the same
To get rid of the "invisible" carriage-return (i.e. "^M") characters, you can use the "vi" command ":s/^V^M//"
