This would be a first for me, mc not coping with strange filenames. Is the name really 'egotrippi_-_??l??_koskaan_ikin??.mp3' ? I just tried touch 'egotrippi_-_??l??_koskaan_ikin??.mp3' which worked. Then tried an 'ls', which also worked. Then tried rm ego<TAB> which autocompleted to rm egotrippi_-_\?\?l\?\?_koskaan_ikin\?\?.mp3 rm: remove regular empty file `egotrippi_-_??l??_koskaan_ikin??.mp3'? y which worked. Doing a rm ego* also works. So I would be inclined to say that, whatever the problem is, it's more than just a matter of strange characters. Sorry I can't be of any further help. -- Carlos Sousa http://vbc.dyndns.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
