Heres a thought, a modification to the 'rm' command, whereby if a certian environment variable was set (ie TRASH_DIRECTORY or something) then rm would do a move instead of a unlink. A flag could be added to rm to force delete (when the environment variable is being used)... what woudl be the chances of something like that getting committed? (ie i would be happy to write something like that, but I am not in the habbit of deleteing files accidentally so its not something i would write for myself) Jacob Rhoden Phone: +61 3 8344 6102 ITS Division Email: jrhoden@unimelb.edu.au Melbourne University Mobile: +61 403 788 386 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
