+You can remove these special characters in Linux using a variety of methods, here are two.
+\\
+. In vi, just delete the ^M characters and save the file.
+. Install dos2unix (yum install dos2unix) and execute this on your file (dos2unix filename)
+       and it will remove them for you, handy if it is a big file.
