Fedora-30 , Files in Terminal and Terminator have apostrophe ''' (one apostrophe at both ends) of a file name, but the files in the Filemanager does not show the apostrophes .
You can't execute a execute file or rename a file in terminal and Terminator.
I just moved the files from a stick to my Fedora-30 fresh install computer.
What Command would I use to to eliminate the ' from each file ?
One of the files I tried to install was 'google-chrome-stable_current_x86_64.rpm' on the Fedora-30
The computer Fedora-28 I copied the file from onto the stick didn't have the ' around the filename but they accumlated when I moved them off of the stick onto the Fedora-30 computer.
I have not installed Midnight Commander on my Fedora boxes. I use the Dolphin file manager and there are no ' around the filename there. the 'filename' only shows up in the shell, Konsole and Terminator.
Renaming files with bad names is hardly the only thing OFMs can do that are otherwise difficult or impossible. They are opposite most good *nix tools, good at doing lots of things well rather than just one.
