I do this:
(defun remove-ctrl-M ()
"Remove ^M at end of line in the whole buffer."
(interactive)
(save-match-data
(save-excursion
(let ((remove-count 0))
(goto-char (point-min))
(point-max) t) ; so passt es nur am Ende der Zeile
(while (re-search-forward (char-to-string 13) (point-max) t)
(setq remove-count (+ remove-count 1))
(replace-match "" nil nil))
(message (format "%d ^M removed from buffer." remove-count))))))
and:
(add-hook 'org-capture-mode-hook 'remove-ctrl-M)

Otto
