I transfer all my data to a Mac with LapLink_Mac. All the transferred text files on Mac have extra line feed control character at each line. I use McSink to open each file and strip the control characters. This is very time consuming. I wonder if there exists a program to this tedius job on all the files in one folder, just like MacCompress and LoneRanger. Thanks for any help.
