If you want to do this from Windows (rather than Unix), it seems to be very hard to stop perl wanting to convert anything that looks like ascii 10 back to ascii 10 + ascii 13.
The one way I've managed to do it is to put the file handle into binmode. aka:
binmode STDOUT;
while (<>) {
s/\n//;
print "$_" . chr(10);
}
Possibly there is a variable that controls this but I haven't found it and things like $OFS in the program and -l012 on the command line don't seem to help (in perl 5.16). Possibly someone might to look into this in more detail.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
