Have you tried `rm -i \-bash\.gmon` or `rm -i xy\ ds`? If your shell is tcsh you can just type part of the filename then press TAB and if you are familiar with emacs (the editor) it has a dired (directory editor) mode where you can arrow up and down and select files with one key press in order to delete them. -- Peter Leftwich President & Founder Video2Video Services Box 13692, La Jolla, CA, 92039 USA +1-413-403-9555 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
