I tried the combinations below which do not change anything or are not recognized
\n
\^m
\^Y
Ctrl-V + Ctrl-M
Ctrl-V + Ctrl-Y => nothing is typed in the console, I have to do a Ctrl-C to get out
\x0D$
\xC1$
[^M^Y]
[^M]
[^Y]
\c[m => not recognized
sed 's/.$//' does remove the ^M at the end of each line but then it is still a multi-line format. Its like removing the last character of each line but keeping the end-of-line linefeed.
[added comments]
Is there a way to find out in VI what is the ascii value of the character under the cursor ?
It would help me identify the right decimal value to use in a replacement string.
[added comments]
I found out that ^M is actually \015. So I can remove it with tr -d '\015'
But I still haven't found out what ^Y is.

COPYRIGHT
Copyright 1996, Toshi Isogai. No guarantees or warranties are provided. Use this program at your own risk. Permission to use this program
for any purpose is given, as long as the copyright is kept intact.
DESCRIPTION
FvwmConsoleC.pl offers editing capabilities while the user is entering the line. By default, the line editing commands are similar to
those of emacs. It also offers substitution , which replaces a pattern to a string before it sends the command.
FUNCTIONS
Functions are bound to a key or key combination to be invoked. The followings are functions available and their default key bindings.
bind Meta-k, Ctrl-x Ctrl-b
List up key bindings and substitutions.
boh

prev_line Up, Ctrl-p

prev_word Meta-b
Move the cursor to the previous word.
quote Ctrl-q
Insert the next character typed into the buffer literally.
search Ctrl-s
Search pattern in history.
search_rev Ctrl-r
Search pattern in history in reverse order.
subst Meta-s
Substitute all patterns to strings and reprint the line. The substitutions are not nested and performed in the order that
they are defined.
CONFIGURATION
The key binding can be overridden or defined in fvwm module configuration.
*FvwmConsole: Key ck prev_line
Non-space character sequence need not be quoted. In order to undefine, omit the last argument.
*FvwmConsole: Key ck
Note that non-meta character is case sensitive. c means control key, e means escape, and m is alt key.
It also accepts Subst configuration. Users often input long fvwm command repeatedly. Subst will replace particular input sequence to user
defined string. Example:
*FvwmConsole: Subst '^bigx' 'Exec xterm -g 120x60+0+0 -fn 10x20 -fg black -bg lemonchiffon'
Typing 'bigx<return>' in FvwmConsole will launch xterm. '^' denotes the beginning of line in regular expression. 'pl' in the middle of the
command will not be replaced. Although the format looks different, it takes Perl regular expression. It just uses single or double quote
as the delimiter. Single or double quotes have no difference, although they have to match, and cannot include itself in the string.
*FvwmConsole: Subst '^gs*(d+)' 'Desk 0 0
GotoPage 0 $1
Focus'
Entering 'g4' or 'g 4' will jump to desk 0 page 0 4 and focus.
INVOCATION
FvwmConsoleC.pl should be invoked by FvwmConsole.
