Hi,

I am trying to open a file called "-2.xml" through VI editor/cat from
command prompt. But unable to read the file as it is taking "-" as one
option.
I am getting the following error - cat: invalid option -- 2

Please let me know your comments on the same

Don't start the filename with "-" then.

vi ./foo
