but i tried to remove it using rm -doc
it was treating this -doc as options.
So how can i remove this file.


<snip>
To remove a file whose name starts with a ‘-’, for
example ‘-foo’,  use one of these commands:

             rm -- -foo

             rm ./-foo




However, if in case you get trapped in a shell and you face such a kind of problem, and its a kind of urgent, then you can use the utility "midnight commander" to navigate through the filesystem.

$mc

it has a nice interface, and can perform all the
file operations.
