You probably have a dodgy alias with a [ in it

See if '/bin/ls -l *.torrent' gives different results. If so, check
what 'alias ls' returns

Hi Alan,

I get:

$ /bin/ls -l *.torrent
/bin/ls: invalid option -- [
Try `/bin/ls --help' for more information.
$ alias ls
alias ls='ls --color=auto'

Gimp stopped working last night too.
