Hi folks. Recently as a mistype I created a dir named "--help" as the follow: drwxr-x--- 5 qmailq qmail 512 Sep 19 20:25 --help/ So how can I remove this? when i type "rm -rf --help" it exits quietly, i tried some glob as "*help*" and escape as "\-\-help" but not worked so far, when i try to "cd" into it says: bash: cd: illegal option: -- cd: usage: cd [-PL] [dir] If this is answered in any FAQ sorry to send this here, Thanks in advance, Vinicius Vianna To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
