I know essentially nothing about UNIX, but surely I'm not the first person to run into this problem of a NUL in the filename?
I appreciate members taking the time to post suggestions! regards, David
The name of a file is a null-terminated string, so it is normally impossible to create a file with a name containing a null character. Please change directory to the directory containing the file you can't remove and then show us the output you get from the command:
Could anyone tell me how or point me in the right direction on how to save files from a 2000box to a OSX server with the correct file permissions. File goes over and the only person that has r/w permissions is the owner everyone else is read only. HELP!!! (2 Replies)

Hello
I have a Perl script that works on non-darwin Mac OS X environments and I think I have narrowed down the issue to a file locking problem.

RAKE(1) Ruby Programmers Reference Guide RAKE(1)NAME
rake -- Ruby Make
SYNOPSIS
rake [--f Rakefile] [--version] [-CGNPgnqstv] [-D [PATTERN]] [-E CODE] [-I LIBDIR] [-R RAKELIBDIR] [-T [PATTERN]] [-e CODE] [-p CODE]
[-r MODULE] [--rules] [variable=value] target ...
DESCRIPTION
Rake is a simple ruby(1) build program with capabilities similar to the regular make(1) command.
Rake has the following features:
o Rakefiles (Rake's version of Makefiles) are completely defined in standard Ruby syntax. No XML files to edit. No quirky Makefile syntax
to worry about (is that a tab or a space?).
o Users can specify tasks with prerequisites.
o Rake supports rule patterns to synthesize implicit tasks.
o Flexible FileLists that act like arrays but know about manipulating file names and paths.
o A library of prepackaged tasks to make building rakefiles easier.
OPTIONS --version Display the program version.
-C
--classic-namespace
Put Task and FileTask in the top level namespace

--describe [PATTERN]
Describe the tasks (matching optional PATTERN), then exit.
