can you describe the symbol? i think you may be talking about
carriage return. are you looking at files on a dos file
system (like in 9fat, or on the install floppy)? dos (and
derivatives) use a carriage return and line feed at the end
of each line; in plan 9 (and unix, depending on your editor)
only a line feed is needed, so the carriage return becomes a
printable character (a diaganal "CR" in most plan 9 fonts,
or a "^M" in most unix editors).
of course, if you're not talking about carriage return, just
ignore all that. what's the character look like?

You're seeing them because they exist. Files on DOS have carriage returns.

It's probably a carriage return. Snarf it and give it as
an argument to unicode(1) to see what the hex value is.

Hello, friends
Beginner question: how to make that some incomprehensible symbol in
the end of each line (when viewing text documents) not there was is seen.
