That's not "m", that's "[m" which is how your system is displaying an
ASCII carriage-return character - CTL-M, 0x0D hex, 13 decimal. Probably
means you are using Unix or some other system that doesn't use
carriage-returns in text files. Or it may be a configurable setting in
whatever is generating the text.

Delete them - use tr, sed, awk, even vi.
