rm *f t* should delete '-rf' and the test file, leaving the directory, however, it interperates -rf as arguments, deleteing the folder and its contents. (It also leaves the -rf file).
Not a bug. Wildcards get expanded by the shell, thus what you are typing (i.e. what the shell is seeing) is "rm -rf testdir". So to be sure that you want to delete the directory -rf to, type "rm -- *f", or some such. _______________________________________________ Bug-fileutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-fileutils
