How can I delete all the control-M's (^M) from
a file with a map function?

This is what I have tried but it doesn't seem to work.

:map m :1,$s/\^V^M//g^V^M
"       Press m to get rid of crtl-M's in file

I use a similiar macro for the followinf function
and it works.

:map z :.,$s/_\^V^H//g^V^M
"       Press z to .,$s/_^H//g
"       used to remove _^H in man pages sent to a file

What's the difference???
