From the Emacs Manual:
`C-x <RET> r CODING <RET>'
Revisit the current file using the coding system CODING.
Chapter 27 "International Character Support" has an extensive, well written
section on encodings.

This inverted v is the CARET character ^ or CIRCUMFLEX ACCENT at U
+005E, which, in combination with other characters, stands in a GNU
Emacs buffer for display (presentation) of Control-<something>.
The correct syntax would be:
-*- coding: utf-8-dos; -*-
Notice the final ``;´´ which actually ends the assignment.

Thanks for your help with my Emacs problem. To repeat: The problem was
that it seemed that the "-*- coding: utf-8-dos; -*-" specification in
the first line of a file had no effect. After receiving your posts I
went back to the manual, and it turned out that the Emacs variable
inhibit-eol-conversion was set to a non nil value on my system. After
setting it to the value nil in my .gnu-emacs-custom file, the editing
of dos text files was possible.
Regards,
bostjanv

Hello,
I am using Emacs 22.3.1 on a SUSE Linux 11.0 system, and I am encountering the following problem: I would like to edit a file encoded with utf-8-dos; however, I can't get rid of the <inverted_v>M characters at the end of lines in the display. I placed
-*- coding: utf-8-dos-*-
in the first line; but it didn't help. Is there any way to get rid of the offending characters?
Regards,
bostjanv
