Well, ^M is a representation of the carriage-return character -- the fact that it's not being displayed by your editor suggests that, in fact, it *is* a carriage-return which is being suppressed on the grounds that it's an "invisible" position-control character. Look for an option in your editor to display "invisible" characters, or a handy utility that will strip out unwanted characters. (Sorry, I'm not a UNIX guru so can't suggest anything more concrete!)
