hello,
   I am new in Emacs. I am trying to use emacs for VHDL editing.
I downloaded Emacs _emacsw32 and installed it on my windows computer.

When I open a VHDL file with emacs, it shows ^M at the end of each line and 
the beatify  doesn't work properly but when I manually delete ^M from the 
ends of file, it is working properly.
What is this ^M and how I can beatify VHDL codes when there is ^M at the end 
of lines?

Regards

Specify the file's encoding precisely by adding a -dos or such. For  
example, list-coding-systems might list:

	iso-8859-15-mac
	iso-8859-15-dos
	iso-8859-15-unix
	iso-8859-15

M-x describe-coding-system RET can describe your recent situation.  
Based on this you can optimise your situation. With

	(prefer-coding-system '<some name>)

you can set one or more general preferences in ~/.emacs, in auto-mode- 
alist you can set another preference particular for the file type  
specified.

I get that sometimes to, it's probably unix vs dos line endings..
Usually I just do a replace-regexp on "^M"s for nothing.
Tip: To enter that ^M you have to type C-q C-m
Please try it and see if it helps you.
