Howto: Remove the 240 character in a file

[thenewa2x]

Okay, I have a file with a strange Windows character. In Linux when I [tt]od -x -v -c[/tt] the file, i see this number in lots of spots. How do I get rid of it? The file is a Linux text-file (I used "vi").

---------------------------------------
If you helped... thx.

$string = "we want to remove ? from this text";
print "before: $string\n";
$string =~ s/\xf0//g;
print " after: $string\n";


Kind Regards
