Did you not just use tab? That's the usual method of dealing with weird characters in filenames that I've found
This was quite a while ago now, but I don't think my shell escaped the tab complete properly, I remember it just printing a literal newline and evaluating it as a second command. I think there was other unicode in there too, otherwise I would have just typed it out. I had to do something with null terminated output and piping it in to
mv
, but I can't remember what exactly.Too bad when there's multiple files starting with and consisting mostly of e.g. kanji (when on a Latin keyboard).
With the right shell, you can just press tab multiple times to cycle through the possible completions.
