Excel is blah to work with. A client gives us data made with it though and they put symbols in the text. After trying to cat out the tsv file I found this solution from within emacs: M-x replace-regexp [[:nonascii:]] RET RET It found and replaced the pesky tm symbols in the text file with nothing. I wonder if the [[:nonascii:]] char class is available on the command line in awk or sed?
