    $'.env\r' would be a clearer / more readable way to write it, with the whole thing inside C-escape-expanding quotes. Oh, but that is how ls --quoting-style=shell-escape .env* prints it, unfortunately, if I touch that filename first. This looks like a good use-case for rm -i .env? or .env* as another answer points out. Commented May 21, 2022 at 3:46
