  11. Line noise resulted in a file being named "download{{{[w3v3{" and now it can't
  12. be accessed by cat, mv, vi, etc; (I presume because some of the characters are
  13. wildcars themselves, but even using quotation marks with mv doesn't help). Any
  14. ideas on what to do? E-mail preferred. Thanks.
