Warning: File contains DOS-style line endings.

I am  a newbee to LInux CNC. I need some help getting past the  "Warning: File contains DOS-style line endings."

I am trying to configure LInuxcnc to work with a VistaCNC P4 S pendant. I keep getting the error "Warning: File contains DOS-style line endings."
I have saved the file vc-ps4.hal in linux but the error still comes up. I have looked at the file in Notepad++ and it has CRLF after each line. 

Is there a specific file format I need to save the file in?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Dos/windows style is CR + LF
Linux (Unix) style is LF only.

That can be quickly changed when using notepad++ or programmer's notepad.

There is a command line program called dos2unix which will clean it up
You will need to install it with: sudo apt install dos2unix
If you must open a file on Windows, use notepad++ and ensure the line endings are set for linefeed only in the settings.

Thanks I was able to make the change with Notepad++.

I got P4-s working with my PC's running linuxcnc 2.6.11- unbutu12.04.

I cant seem to get it to work with my LinuxCNC 2.84-buster.

Im getting Debug error "vc-postgui.hal:6: Pin 'ini.4.max_velocity' does not exist"

Mine is working under 2.8.4.  This is the contents of my vc-postgui.hal

net axis_0_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.0.max.vel => ini.0.max_velocity
net axis_1_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.1.max.vel => ini.1.max_velocity
net axis_2_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.2.max.vel => ini.2.max_velocity
net axis_3_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.3.max.vel => ini.3.max_velocity
net axis_4_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.4.max.vel => ini.4.max_velocity
net axis_5_max_vel vc-p4s.ini.5.max.vel => ini.5.max_velocity
net spindle-speed hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.count

In my vc-p4s.hal I only have 3 axis setup

setp axis_0_max_velocity [JOINT_0]MAX_VELOCITY
setp axis_1_max_velocity [JOINT_1]MAX_VELOCITY
setp axis_2_max_velocity [JOINT_2]MAX_VELOCITY

I don't know if any of this will help.  Maybe you could comment it out if you don't have that many axis.

Our files are the same except for line "net spindle-speed hm2_5i25.0.encoder.00.count"

I commented out axis 4 and 5, the app loads. The pendant is now working.
I had previoulsy commented out line 5.

Thanks for your help,
Wayne

I'm using a 1.8kw servo motor as a spindle and it has an encoder so that is what the extra line in mine is for.

I wonder why I don't get the error you were getting? I only have a mill with XYZ. Oh well, I guess if it works don't break it.

Im using Axsis 4 axsis GUI. That may be why I had to comment out the 5th and 6th axsis.

So far I can't get Gmoccapy gui to work.

Thanks again for your insight and help. This is my first attempt at installing Linuxcnc. My previous version was pre installed by Sherline.
