Remove carriage-return character ^M

A text file created in Windows has a carriage return character followed by a newline character at the end of each line. The carriage return character can show up as ^M in Vim in Unix-like systems.

To remove all of them automatically, do

To insert ^M, type Ctrl-V Ctrl-M.
