$ appears as end of line characters and it's unremovable please help

[ericntd-legacy]

Thanks a lot for your helpful .vimrc.

The issue with the $ character is driving me insane though. When I try to execute my script I got "^M" is an invalid character but in Vim, I see $ upon entering ":set list"

I tried :%s/^V^M//g but it says "^M" pattern is not found. I'm really stuck

Please help, I can't lose this particular script

Some more information please,

What operating system are you running?
What do you see when you?

cat "filename"
cat -evt "filename"

Can you please attach one line as an example?
The second cat will show me the control char in a readable form
By compairing the first and second cat, I can tell what is a control char and what is a printable char.

Thx

I have a mapping m that removes ^M from the file.

Hope this helps!

In the end, I decided to retyped the script, it didn't take that long.

I believe this issue emerged because someone else in my team who has access to the same script tried to view/ edit it using Notepad++ in Windows while I was using Fedora all that while.

The issue may not have to do with your vimrc config at all. Sorry for the trouble and thanks for your attention!

The problem is probably with Unix/Windows line endings. Simple $ dos2unix /path/to/file fixes the problem.

^M character is entered by CTRL+v, CTRL+m.

Hope that helps next time :)

You can do this with <leader>m with this vimrc:

vimrc/vimrcs/basic.vim
