rm command-outputting files as they are deleted?
Solaris 10/Korn
Hi unix experts!,
Is it possible to output the actual file names to a file as they are being deleted via the rm command?
Context:
Im executing the shell script at the command line and directing the output to an output file eg purgescript.ksh > output.lst
within the file Im using the following find command to remove files.
find $EXP_DIR -mtime +$RETENTION_PERIOD -exec rm {} \;
where $EXP_DIR and $RETENTION_PERIOD period are respective parameters passed in
but the output.lst file does not show the files being removed. Is there any way to output this?
Kind regards
Satnam

RBASH(1) General Commands Manual RBASH(1)
NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)
RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is
used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow-
ing are disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a file name containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command
o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command
o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command
o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
