Deleting files with special characters
You can delete a file with strange characters (especially hidden characters) by it's inode number.
To find the inode number of a file, list the directory with the -i option:
ram# ls -i
2064227 test
2064227 is the inode number of the file 'test'.
Use the find command to delete the file by it's inode number:
find . -inum 2064227 -exec rm {} \;

Thanks for this tip. It is especially useful for non-English speakers.
Is it on purpose that your MT version does not propose signing in with OpenID?
Thanks for the feedback, Brenton. Let me see if I can enable openID authentication also
