Yes. I use vi. I always use vi for anything that has anything to do with

Downloading things to my computer, editing them, uploading them, getting
rid of all the ^M characters, etc, is rather tedious.

FYI there is a DOS and win32 command prompt version of VI.   (Still
waiting to get around to compile pico for win32).  Also if you have win
3.1 or win32 there is a great program for text editing called PFE.  It
handles the dos/unix text file conversion with no problem and gives you
your potions at save time.  I use it here all the time for editing files
on Sun systems via NFS.

Also see if dos2unix is installed on your Unix system.  It cleans up all
the ^M's for you automatically.  Also you can use unix2dos to go the other
way
