Bash Question

[shanenin]

This happens to me quite abit when I want to delete a torrent file. Below is an example

mainbox shane # ls | grep Invas
-{mininova.org}- Invasion.S01E14.HDTV.XviD-LOL.[eztv].torrent

I am not sure how to delete this. I have tried single quotes, tab completion, wildcards, but I always get the same error.

mainbox shane # rm -\{mininova.org\}-\ Invasion.S01E14.HDTV.XviD-LOL.\[eztv\].torrent
rm: invalid option -- {
Try `rm --help' for more information.

another example

mainbox shane # rm *
rm: invalid option -- {
Try `rm --help' for more information.

What can be done to remove this file?

[jcl]

$ rm -- $FILENAME

or

$ rm ./$FILENAME

Thanks that will come in handy :-)

this question led to another. I ended up using konqueror to remove the file. I r-clicked and sent it to my trash. I can not seem to find this file, or am not even sure what directory kde used for trash.

I do have a .Trash directory, but it is empty. I am still not sure where all of the stuff I moved to my trash went.

I don't have access to KDE ATM. You could do the old

$ find ~ -name '*Invasion.S01E14*torrent'

[shanenin]

now I feel dumb, I did not think of doing a search

here it is, incase anyone else would like to know where the kde trash is

shane@mainbox ~ $ find ~ -name '*Invasion.S01E14*torrent'
/home/shane/.local/share/Trash/files/-{mininova.org}- Invasion.S01E14.HDTV.XviD-LOL.[eztv].torrent
