=C2=A0
I have a file which is named =E2=80=9C-l=E2= =80=9D, and I use the wc to count the file, undesirably wc reque= sted the standard input rather than my file "-l" ,althou= gh I use it through the command
wc -lw -l
it didn't work as my will, howev= er, linux itself do not limit this kind of name style, but wc does, so un= reasonable, such as my above command actually doesn't cause a ambiguity, = so can you improve it ? try to check whether those files exist by the arg= s from arg[2] atleast,not ignore those arguments.
=C2=A0
expect your reply.:)
