   Hello Shaun,   
      
   10 Mar 22 20:27, you wrote to me:   
      
    SB> It's really just a curiosity.   
      
   It's because for the two times I tested my script, I didn't run the text    
   through dos2unix which produced the "x" as a placeholder for the formfeed    
   character.   
      
   In my script, I use "sed -i 's/\x0c//'" to remove the formfeed character (hex:    
   0C).  There won't be any more "x" characters showing up.   
      
   If you're curious, the script is listed at https://pastebin.com/qUE773uj for    
   your perusal.
