Hello.
I'm using emacs on several FreeBSD boxes (text or X version).
For several years I've been able to replace any character with a
newline, by doing (e.g. with ';'):
M-x replace-string(enter);(enter)^Q(enter)(enter)
The line
a;b;c
would become
a
b
c
Now the same procedure does not work anymore as the (enter) immediately
after ^Q does not move to a newline, but enters ^M.
I.e. what I get is "a^Mb^Mc".
How can I restore the previous behavior, or, failing that, replace
something with a newline?
I don't know when and why this stopped working.
bye & Thanks
av.
