I have a pesky little file whose name appears to be single character, and that character is a \r
How can I delete this?
This is what I get with ls -bl
:
-rw-rwxr--+ 1 root snapplewriters 0 Aug 29 2011 \r
ls -l
just display it "?"

Us
ls -li
to get the inode number for the file (first column), then usefind
to delete it (assuming inode is 12345):find . -inum 12345 -exec rm -i {} \;
