    How to view a file which is named QQ[0].txt ? Reply

    Hello ,

    In unix , I have a file QQ[0].txt , when I use command  vi  QQ[0].txt  it will becomes  vi  QQ\[0].txt , it can be opened.

    So it needs a back slash before \[  .

    When I use isFile("QQ\\[0].txt") ==> nil ,

    What's the way to determine a file which has bracket is exist ?

    Thank you,

    Charley

    Charley,

    You would just use isFile("QQ[0].txt") . No need to escape anything. The only reason you're having to escape the [ in the shell is because [ is a special character for the shell...

    getDirFiles("containingDir")

    will show you the actual names of the files.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
