PTYWRAP(1)PTYWRAP(1)NAME
ptywrap - fool programs into thinking they are talking to a pseudo-tty
SYNOPSIS
ptywrap
DESCRIPTION
ptywrap is a simple tool to wrap other programs' input/output streams in a pseudo-tty.
Many programs determine whether or not they should buffer their input/output based on whether or not these are connected to a pseudo-tty.
Ptywrap can be used to fool programs into thinking that they are connected to a pseudo-tty even if they are not (e.g. even if the
input/output is redirected to a file).

CADABRA(1)CADABRA(1)NAME
cadabra - field-theory motivated computer algebra system
SYNOPSIS
cadabra
DESCRIPTION
Cadabra is a computer algebra system for the manipulation of tensorial expressions.
The output of cadabra is either plain text or UTF8 encoded Unicode (see the environment variables described below). The line-breaking prop-
erties of the latter are used to wrap large expressions are reasonable points. In addition to the standard output, cadabra can print status
information, which is wrapped in special <status>...</status> blocks.
OPTIONS --silent
Disables all output, except for output generated by the @print algorithm.
--loginput
Copy the input into the log file.
--input filename
Read the indicated file as input before switching to console input.
--prompt string
Set the prompt of the interactive session to the indicated string.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following variables toggle various features on or off, depending on whether the variable is set or not:
CDB_PRINTSTAR
Display a star to indicate products. Without this setting, a space is used.
CDB_USE_UTF8
Use UTF8 encoding for output. This in particular will introduce non-breakable spaces to group objects together, as well as zero-
width non-breakable spaces to prevent line-breaks after brackets, underscore and caret symbols. When this variable is not set, the
output will be plain ASCII without any special symbols.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:
12FX009:5 dpontius$ ls
ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘
12FX009:5 dpontius$ rm... (29 Replies)
