Yes, replacing rm is a severely bad idea. Lots of things use rm and unless you perfectly emulate every possible option rm has you'll probably break something important. You might also get your fancy undelete folder rapidly filling with thousands of useless temporary files that really should have been rm-ed.
What I've seen done sometimes is:
...in a user's profile.
This has the advantage that myfancybackupscript.sh will be only ever be used in interactive shells. Never in scripts, never in cron jobs, never in system utilities, never in anything built around the real rm -- it only gets run when a human types rm .... It also means no broad changes are made to your system. It also means people can still get the real RM if they want it, by calling it as /bin/rm.

On AIX 5.2 as root, installed Seamonkey and have to type
#/seakey/seamonkey/seamonkey to get it to run, which it does okay.
To set up a permanent alias, I did the following

alias seamk='/seakey/seamonkey/seamonkey'
and saved it to /home/alias_file

I try to understand the meaning of an inode. I wonder whether
an inode is unique (I'm pretty sure it is) and
whether it remains the same inode regardless of whatever happens to the file, dir or whatever?
I read somewhere that an inode stores info about the file, size... so changing the... (4 Replies)
Is there a way to make a permanent pseudo-file, whose contents may dynamically change? I'm thinking of something like an SQL view here. I've been trying to do this with pipes, but I haven't been able to crack it.
For example, I have two files, “half1” and “half2”, which are subject to change... (3 Replies)

endusershell
getusershell(3C) Standard C Library Functions getusershell(3C)NAME
getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
char *getusershell(void);
void setusershell(void);
void endusershell(void);
DESCRIPTION
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a legal user shell as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If
/etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place:
/bin/bash /bin/csh
/bin/jsh /bin/ksh
/bin/pfcsh /bin/pfksh
/bin/pfsh /bin/sh
/bin/tcsh /bin/zsh
/sbin/jsh /sbin/pfsh
/sbin/sh /usr/bin/bash
/usr/bin/csh /usr/bin/jsh
/usr/bin/ksh /usr/bin/pfcsh
/usr/bin/pfksh /usr/bin/pfsh
/usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh /usr/xpg4/bin/sh
The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells.
The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list.
The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells.
RETURN VALUES
The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF.
BUGS
All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved.
