It seems like what we need is a 'never be interactive' flag, that won't surpress the error message about the schg'd file, or read-only file system, but won't try to prompt for it. Although adding a new flag to rm(1) at this point probably doesn't make sense. --=20 Allan Jude --m5L3ieEH5FU8s8RU5N9QKFcgohTotomt9 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (MingW32) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJWjIg/AAoJEBmVNT4SmAt+9wgP/0ZK2iSoqxqII/vzDgKGGaMN +T6CAyTfQBv35krGOUh/0yOEzbkSalBrc2lWYgnc2VEtTyGs860bELynEXz2viMq pqyKK1wnC+QJEbJd/rfZYpVIvtXQISNLEyWXxHlaXlrLdNTJCFGQS5jievuXZrnf CnpCQ7djEGxu6xFrgUtyF0nJ/VeUHIfi8ab91mWg6bOWtV57YMAsWTC9AFGjLT4/ swV9YFEtu5eHbhiM5nqbPuT8NcUPBuWE8ad9US19kM2me0gYQPTTwsjZ1OJf4/2r zQBj9wcn8R3z/8GSoBEDbuW3NCpHrAIw5deB6LoUxP03AYA6Ozynv9ghu0JRr05s A7wrsA98VPCyIzEf/Nhu5YWNc2y91gE8bMJK/N90MDRAOxj0Fx8nsBK+sXoJ5T4c Q++XYRwTUiI3+7e9cBDiSEjJKVmbtLv7aTVS5VyVNWmNkUV5lwuHUst0+0dwhxzN zxqwmC2epxTNZ2SUjlvWZfp/npLk5yJtyL2TZR0441TKmaC8YYRTimMr0LcVzCRD TpxylF7Hx0Jis547EGUOEsgy6HwnTn3E3mBh56m+KVSrX8S3/3FGuf2qUnE8makG gMnPHgv90pva6PiT+juFmb0IeXhleS5N8yMM9dPkh8HIFHK8BwTeGhaovMuMR1Nl BqGu26uz5pk7u1kyyW84 =kgWr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --m5L3ieEH5FU8s8RU5N9QKFcgohTotomt9--
