creating a menu for recycling and permanently deleting files.
Trying to alias rm to move files to a hidden trash directory in the bash shell. I've tried to create this alias numberous ways and it's just not working. Here's what I've tried, anyone have any suggestions.
alias rm='mv $* ~/.trash' alias rm= 'mv$* ~/.trash' things like that... I've also tried creating a function called my_rm_script that contains just the "'mv ..." part of the above. None of it works! I've about lost patience with it.  The concept is to create an undelete function: an alias for rm to place "deleted" files in a trash folder give an option to recover files from the trash folder and a destroy function that basically unaliases rm briefly so that the files that are chosen to be deleted are permanently deleted from the ~/.trash folder. Help Please?!?!?!  |
