    As I was writing the previous email, I thought about combining find with php's
    cli interface and came up with this "dirty" command (all in one line) ->

    find ./ -name '*.php' -exec php -r '$f = file_get_contents("{}"); $h =
    fopen("{}", "wb"); fwrite($h, trim($f)); fclose($h);' \;

    It did the job perfectly.
