mkdir "
"

will create a folder with a new line as its name

Edit, even more cursed:

Running mkdir $'\e[2J' will create a folder with the "clear screen" escape sequence as its name, so entering it and running pwd will clear your terminal screen

Listing of the three directories in GUI and terminal. The user is about to run pwd from the last directory

pwd cleared the terminal screen, mostly

What the three directories look like when their names are selected in the GUI

I hate that all of this just works.
