the magicrescue command sometimes gives errors saying
"cannot remove <FILE NAME>: no such file or directory."

i tested one of the files with the file command and saw that the output
was: JPEG, some description, and then a caption in quotation marks.

sorry, i mistyped the message body.

the name of the program with the issue is magicsort in the magicrescue
package, not the magicrescue program in the same package.

also, the error is that it cannot "move" the file, instead of "remove".
