The line ends are inconsistent. Or there is a ^M in the middle of a line somewhere. If this is deliberate (part of a string maybe), you should probably use "\x0d" instead. > How can I fix it? There may be better ways, but usually I use the following method to repair such files (do not type any spaces, they are just seperating keystrokes for clarity): Keystrokes Explanation M-< Ensure you are starting at the beginning of the file. M-% C-q C-m RET RET Replace all ^M characters with nothing. C-x RET f d o s RET Set the file to DOS mode. C-x C-s Save the repaired file. You can omit the third step if you don't mind the file having Unix line ends. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
