I'm puzzled, why do you want a directory with a carriage return in its name?
Anyway - some programs (like ls) will convert control characters to question marks. But most don't, and your prompt string ($PS1) does not. To avoid seeing the carriage return in your prompt, you will have to change your prompt so it does not contain the working directory. For example, substitute this for the last occurrence of "\w" in your PS1 variable: \$(pwd | tr -d \\r\\n) That will just remove carriage returns and linefeeds from the directory name. It will prevent the carriage returns displaying, but you will be unable to tell the difference between repo and repo^M in your prompt. Note that when you do "cd repo?" or "cd repo^M" (you can get "^M" by pressing CTL-V then CTL-M), you do actually change into the directory! You just don't see its name in the prompt. And because "pwd" will not transcode carriage returns, it is hard to see what directory you are in. You can do this to check what directory you are in: pwd | od -a Aside from these output oddities, the directory can be used in the same ways as any other directory. Regards, K.
