	There seems to be a problem with my previous message
	(or people are not interpreting it correctly). I suggested
	either "rm -i *" OR "rm -i .*" where '.' indicates a
	single character match of ANY sort and '*' indicates matching
	any number of repetitions of ANY character. (Some meta-language
	matching algorithms use '?' instead of '.'.

	As for the "ls | see" or "ls | cat -v" solutions, either
	of these is equally valid.
