One way:
$ touch C.dat
$ echo > -C
$ ls -l | grep C
-rw-r--r-- 1 williamr staff 1 Jul 9 19:21 -C
-rw-r--r-- 1 williamr staff 0 Jul 9 19:21 C.dat
$ rm nosuchfile -C
rm: nosuchfile: No such file or directory
$ ls -l | grep C
-rw-r--r-- 1 williamr staff 0 Jul 9 19:21 C.dat
Another way:
find . -name -C -exec rm {} \;

Hi All,
I have this file by name '-C' created by mistake. I am unable to
delete this. Any ideas?
/[oraapp@greece app]# ls -l
total 457636
-rw-r--r-- 1 oraapp oraapp 435824640 Oct 4 2007 -C
-rw------- 1 oraapp oraapp 32271367 Oct 4 2007 nohup.out/
How can i delete the '-C' file?
Thanks,
Vikram
