[net.followup] removing bad files

G:tut (06/12/82)

I always thought the best way to remove files with bad names was

	rm -ri .

That will work even on files beginning with periods, and on filenames
containing metacharacters.  I have never seen a file that couldn't
be removed this way; "rm -i *" occasionally fails to match a name.
But don't forget the -i!
