Is there an easy way to delete carriage returns (^M) in vi? I am editing
some html files created on a PC, and they annoy me :-)
I tried :%s/^M//g but I get a substitute pattern match failed message,
probably because I'm entering shift-6 and shift-m as two characters. I
also tried \r, but that deletes all r's from the file.
Regards,
Garry.
