Me too.  I read Sergey's page, checked the FAQ, read through this years 
archives and saw lots of folks talking about the goods and bads of
text=binary, 
as it pertains to emacs, but no mention of how to accomplish this.  I
know
this info is somewhere so can some kind person explain what is necessary
to do this.  I'm awfully tired of getting:

bash.exe: ls^M: command not found 

in my emacs shell window.
