[MiNT] nameless file problem



I have a strange problem. When I was playing around with GfaBasic I
accidently created a file on my harddisk with an empty name, or maybe a
name with only spaces - I can't really see. In my fileselector I see an
empty line and on my desktop I can see a file icon. It also has a size so
it is really there. But I can not delete nor rename the file. Also I
cannot delete the folder that is around it for that reason. I have tried
with the standard single TOS desktop, I have tried under MiNT using bash
and the rm and rmdir commands, as well as actions under THiNG - no luck. I
also tried HP-optimizer's logical check to see if this would fix anything.
No luck either.

Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of this ghostfile ?
