You want file system bogosity?  Try this ( I started in / ):

/ ls

Is there a plan to address file system bogosity such as the following?

	bash-2.01$ mkdir t
	bash-2.01$ cd t
	bash-2.01$ ls
	bash-2.01$ touch bozo
	bash-2.01$ ls
	bozo
	bash-2.01$ ls bozo.
	bozo.
	bash-2.01$

Note the "." on the end of the last ls command. That file doesn't exist.

Charles
