Hope you can help me with this issue.



I did the following:



mv filename .foldername



after that the file is gone and a hidden folder foldername was created .foldername



when cd .fordername I got a Not a directory answer.



Getting desperate I did:



mv .foldername /foldername



and then .foldername all together is gone.
I can not locate the original file filename.
Please help!
Thanks a lot.
