Hello all you vi gurus,
I need to know how to get rid of "\304" character and replase them with a
"-" character. I can't find the control sequence I need. This file was
uploaded as an ascii file so I don't know how these special characters
got into the file. Below is a sample of the file with the problem character
present:
596D4403
596D4403
596D5223
596D4091
596D4873
Unfortunately, it looks like the mail processor converted this character
to a "D" character...amazing that...anyway I'd appreciate any help you can
provide.
