Suppose I run "ayip to yank the following lines into register 'a':

    one
    two
    three

When I use the `:reg a` command to inspect the contents of the register, it
shows newlines as ^J, like this:


    --- Registers ---
    "a   one^Jtwo^Jthree^J

But if I use <c-r>a to paste the contents of that register at the command
line, the newlines are represented as ^M, like this:

    /<c-r>a
expands to:
    /one^Mtwo^Mthree^M

Why does the newline appear as ^J in one case, and as ^M in the other?

Thanks,
Drew
