Hello, Admin's,

our better half over the pond has delivered a file that was edited with a
Windows based editor, which has left the "^M" characters (return of line?)
at the end of each line:

                Parent(s):^M
                spec :^M
                ^M
                History:^M

I've attempted several sed commands to remove these with no luck:
                :%s!{^M}!!g
                :%s!`^M`!!g

, but I'm sure I've seen this done. Can anyone help with the correct
syntax?

Best Regards,
