I don't understand your comment. There was no rationale. That is
just what the ASCII characters are used for and a little of the history
of how

Hi there,
It appears that a text editor placed a bunch on ^M throughout a text
file I am working with. I assure this is equivalent to eh keystroke
control-M.
How might I get emacs to search replace
also is there a mail list focused specifically on emacs usability?
please refer me to it?

Put a mark right before the character (control-space) move to right
after the character and cut the character (control-w). Move to the top
of the document (esc-) and start a query replace (esc-%). Yank in

Open the file in Emacs with:
M-x find-file-literally RET filename RET
and
Those ^M's are the MS-DOS EOL character. You can use sed, or tr to remove
them via a commandline pipe.

There is a program in ports called unix2dos. With it comes the command
dos2unix that automatically goes through the specified file and removes
all of the ^M

This is probably MS-DOS type text file. MS text file lines

this is the best answer. Hits it right on the head of what I want.
What if I want the character to replace the ^M with a new line what do I
enter in the replace field?
cheers,

Thanks Peter,
where is the logic here? What is control-q for and what is control-j
for? I am trying to figure out how I could have figured that out.
also is there a better page than the one I am using below to figure all
these keystrokes out?

The nice thing about that method is that it'll work for odd

Logic? I thought we were using emacs here? just kidding... (mostly)
What is control-q for
As Giorgos posted earlier:
The important trick here is that you use C-q to 'quote' the C-m
character in the substitution string

They are ASCII characters. For example, the ^M you wanted to get
rid of is CTRL-M.There are ASCII tables in various places.
