The string above was an example typed by hand, not real one. Those 
strings were total garbage. \0ff, \0e7, various letters, numbers, 
non-printable characters, various lengths too. Anything you want. ls -l 
wasn't even able to display most of them and mc got totally messed up. 
They were all directories (no files at all) and most of them had empty 
tmp dir inside.
