removing carriage returns or other caret-letter combinations

In files transfered from windows/dos to unix, you'll often see ^{M at the end of each newline. This is because the unix linebreak is just \n while the dos linebreak is \n\r. Occasionally you'll also get file accidentally named with a} H in them. You can get rid of these either with sed or vi find/replace, but you have to figure out how to type it first. Here's how:

For ^<LETTER>, type Ctrl-V Ctrl-<LETTER>. So For the carriage return, you'd type Ctrl-V Ctrl-M. This works both in vi and on the commandline.
