Try the "rm" manpage:

       To remove a file whose name starts with a `-', for example `-foo', 
use
       one of these commands:

              rm -- -foo
              rm ./-foo

              rm -i *foo woorks too.

[WBEL-users] Weird Problem






Hello,
                 I was doing a port scan using nmap and used the "-oN" 
feature to
make an output file (used the following command:  nmap -sS -P0 -PT -oN
textfile xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx).
                 Well, for some reason it created an output file with the 
name of
"-PT".  Ever try to view, copy, delete and file with "-" at the beginning 
of
the filename; can't seem to do much of anything with the file.  It keeps
saying "-PT unknown option", etc.
                 Any ideas?
