Those circles are the carriage-returns that DOS and its descendants
like to put at the end of a line (I *think* to be *really really*

They do, don't they. I'm worjing with people who edit Java code on
NT and I edit in Ved on Linux, and those circles just keep coming
back.

I do

    ENTER gs/\r// RETURN

and get rid of them. Bliss.
