color me stumped.

Using QShell might still work, if you can use a wildcard to do the deletion, to avoid not being able to type the unprintable characters.

Alternatively, you could try to use Unix-type file APIs like opendir() and unlink() to avoid any stripping off of characters that the shell might be doing.
