I have in my /.emacs
(global-set-key [f5] 'cut-ctrlM)
(defun cut-ctrlM()
(interactive)
(beginning-of-buffer)
(while (search-forward "\r" nil t)
(replace-match "" nil t)))

but when I hit [f5]
the minibuffer shows "Mark set" and nothing  happens in the buffer.
the same results happens when I M-x cut-ctrlM, "Mark set" and nothing else.

thanks
