Here's a little brain-teaser:

I've managed, though faulty sed syntax, to end up with a 0-byte file
called "-e".

The question is: how do I delete it????

I've tried:

rm -e
rm ?e
rm -?
rm \-e

but rm isn't having any of it.

What with this being zero bytes, I'm not losing sleep over it, but I'd
be interested in suggestions.
