Then hit `n' for every file but the right one.  If you're too paranoid
to try this then use 

ls -il 		
find . -inum <num> -exec rm -i {} \;

where <num> is the inode numbert listed with ls -i.


No C programs, no hacks, just one or two simple commands.  Why does this
discussion go on forever everytime the question is asked?
