[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1022331] Re: -cpu ? causes confusion when directory has 1-character length filenames

[Michael Tokarev]

Please take this to your shell.  The queston mark is a metacharacter for
any *nix shell, you should just quote or backslash it.  The same
question mark is not special on windows.

Thanks,

Title:
  -cpu ? causes confusion when directory has 1-character length
  filenames

Status in QEMU:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  
  When user is in a directory with 1-character long filenames, parameter -cpu ? 
causes shell to expand ? into filename, which can cause a very confused user.

  One solution would be to replace/add alias to -cpu ?, for example
  -cpulist
