How to delete a file with special characters
I don't now exactly how I did it, but I created a file named " -C "

cexdi:/home1 $ls -lt
total 1801336
-rw------- 1 cexdi ced-group 922275840 23 mars 10:03 -C

How do I delete this file ?

cexdi:/home1 $rm -C
rm: invalid option -- C
Syntax : rm [-Rfir] filename ...

Doesn't work... I'm stuck.
