boy this smells an awful lot like a good newbiedoc intro,
doesn't it? hmm?

(nice job so far -- these specific user/group concepts are

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #45 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
Troubled by DOS-FORMAT TEXT FILES? There are many ways
to get rid of the extra ^M characters. In VIM, try
	:set ff=unix
before saving the file (":opt" for more info); or, use perl:
	perl -pi.dos -e 's/\cM//g' filename*pattern.txt
("perldoc perlrun" for more info.)
