In emacs, how to strip CR (^M) and leave LF (^J) characters?

Question

I am trying to use hexl mode to manually remove some special chars from a text file and don\'t see how to delete anything in hexl mode.

What I really want is to remove c

No need for hexl-mode for this. Just do a global-search-and-replace of ^J^M with ^J Works for me. :) Then save the file, kill the buffer, and revisit the file so the window shows the new file mode (Unix vs DOS).
