Jennings Computing Center Lines: 16 After I create a script file of something and send it to be printed, I first have to go into Emacs and edit all those damn ^M and ^Ds. It is such a pain. A sysop here wrote a little C program to clean the files but I still want to see if I can do it in Emacs. Is there any way to *quickly* clean a file of control characters in Emacs?
