Save a cat:

	$ tr -d '\r' < <file> 

or, if you might have other "\r"s in the file,

	$ sed -e 's/\r$//' <file> 

Actually, just running something through sed seems to do it for me on a
bin mount (though maybe this is just the same as running something
through gawk).

	$ echo xxxY | tr Y \\r | od -c
	0000000   x   x   x  \r  \n
	0000005
	$ echo xxxY | tr Y \\r | sed -e 's/asdf/asdf/' | od -c
	0000000   x   x   x  \n
	0000004
