Question : How to delete a file named *.

One Answer : Use the command DIR OPT I which is a directory with the
	Inquire option. Each file will be listed and and you will be
	given a prompt. You can type ENTER (if its a dir), DEL to delete
	it, <CR> to go to the next file, and TYPE I believe to type it.
	When it shows you the *. file type DEL
