I need to know how to remove a file from my account.  Some background,
I had dialed in from home, and while saving a file, some linenoise came
across and got embedded in the file name.  Well, this means I can't
access this file.  I have tried all of the following:

    %rm -i *
    %rm * 
    %rm -rf *

all of them returned: 'file does not exist'.  

The question is: how do I get rid of this file?  Any and all help will
be greatly appriciated.

Thanks in advance,
David Brenner
