If i know right, ´chomp´ is not an extra module. ´Chomp´ is a perl
syntax like ´print´, ´if else ...´etc.
If you use

	perl -h

in your console, you get a list of options and you can see the
description for -p and -i. See README-win.txt too. It is similar like 

	perl -npi.bak -e "s:\r::g" <file-you-edited>

	Joachim
