Thanks for the post. I now just have to decipher what I am seeing. Hmmm running :set list and then seeing some ^I or $ means what?

This is what I found to removed the pesky ^M’s that mess up your script:
:e ++ff=dos
:setlocal ff=unix
:w

When you run cat -vT or run the script the ^M’s should be gone.
Basically it saves the file back into the UNIX format and scripts the DOS carriage returns from the file.

Did some testing, the alarm is now tied to the volume and mute buttons. Before I could switch to silent and guarantee a loud alarm. Now I need to have it switched on and the volume up. PITA. It would be great if they gave you options over this. Such as “Wake me no matter what Dammit!” that overrides all audio settings.

Thank you for the Vi tip. I have been pulling my hair out over some CSS that is not rendering in the browser. Here is the CSS:

.quiz-button-go:hover{
color:#ddffff;
background:#28e07e;
}

Simple right?! The problem is the color is not registering, but the background is. But, when I delete the spaces between the newline and “color”. it works perfectly.

The CSS in question is CSS that I have cut and pasted from my browser into Vim.

When I use :set list, what I get is

44.quiz-button-go:hover{$
45 $
46 ^Icolor:#ddffff;$
47 ^Ibackground:#28e07e;$
48 }$

I’m assuming ^I is tab and $ must be carriage return? Looks fine, right?

Do you know of any other way to view any special hidden chars?

I repeat, if I delete those few spaces, it works perfectly. So I know it’s not a CSS programming thing. This is totally bizarre.

I’ve run into this kind of problem maybe twice in the last 4 months. It’s a real PITA because the text is indeed correct and hunting down this kind of bug is tough…
