Jason,

I looked at that thread and clicking on emacs' : in the status bar confirmed
it is seen as in UNIX mode, but I still see the ^M in the file.

For anyone who wants to play with this, I uploaded the smallest of the four
files (~13M) to fileconvoy.com where it will be available for 5 days. The
URL is <https://tinyurl.com/y54p8xgv>.

Thanks,

Rich
