printf " \tif\n" | expand --initial -t4 |
grep -qF "$(printf '\t')" && echo buggy

Normally, cp -rv files > log should list all the files copied in the file 'log'.
However, when cp -rv a directory under file system mounted via FUSE,
redirect of I/O doesn't work. The verbose output is gone and the log file
contains nothing. Also, if

After entering this in the terminal it became unable to delete the ~ symbol

Please name one.
I'm not sure why this isn't getting through to you. ANY and EVERY
invoker of ls -i that does or possibly could exist is effected by a
degradation of its performance.
