[Matthew T. Eskes]

George, all you should have to do is 'mv file'.mp3 file.mp3'

Subject: [Tfug] Deleting file with invalid charcter

This is probably a stupid newbie question but I'll ask it anyway.

I have a couple of music files on one of my Debian boxes that have a 
apostrophe in the name, IE: dreamin'.mp3  I want to delete or rename the 
file but rm, or mv gives me the > prompt.

I've read the man pages for rm and mv and couldn't find the answer.
