Are you afraid of typing "rm -rf ~/*" by mistake? Do you want to keep opportunities to undo these stupid actions? This script (or similar ones) is for you. This script is given without WARRANTY. You are still responsible for your own data.
Each time you type 'rm', the normal command '/usr/bin/rm' is replaced by this script. In normal situations, the file is moved to $HOME/Trash. To force the use of the original command, pass '-f' as option.
| Unpack archive |
tar xvfpz trash.tar.gz |
Copy the 'rm' script into a directory referenced in your $PATH, typically $HOME/bin.
| Finish installation |
chmod a+x trash/rm cp trash/rm $HOME/bin |
