'\r': command not found - .bashrc / .bash_profile [duplicate]

Answer 1

For the Emacs users out there:

1. Open the file
2. M-x set-buffer-file-coding-system
3. Select "unix"

This will update the new characters in the file to be unix style. More info on "Newline Representation" in Emacs can be found here:

Note: The above steps could be made into an Emacs script if one preferred to execute this from the command line.
