Re: [Bobs-devel] filename problems

[Rene R. <re...@gr...>]

The names are quoted. I've tried both double and single quoting.
If I can get bash to accept the names as "literal" instead of "glob" it
should solve the problem.

A name like "some name^Mtest" does not behave well.
Only working solution I've found was this way:
$'some name^Mtest'
But I can't figure out how that is useful in a script.


I'll keep trying.
