One way is to list it with its inode number and then use find to remove it. # cd # ls -i ==> Take note of its inode number. Then run .. # find . -inum -exec rm -f {} \;
Well, either you guys have been doing this to long or i haven't been doing it long enough. I tried rm ./-h, fewest charaters to type, and it worked. The next time I'll one of the other solutions.
I'm not sure what the h*ll I was thinking with my first suggestion of "*-h*" but that clearly wonn't work! Fortunately my second offering was correct and preferred and you gave me points for that! For future readers:
In general, two consecutive hyphens single the end of flags for well-behaved commands. At your leisure:
# touch -- -h # ls -- -h # mv -- -h -hh # ls -- -h # ls -- -h* # set -f #...disable globbing... # ls -- -h* # set +f #...enable globbing... # rm -i -- -h*
