trying to remove a directory on my usb drive connected to my mbpro
I have a mbpro that has my backup drive (a usb drive) and I've put some directories into the trash folder on it. I'm trying to remove the directory with the rm -r command. When I do that, I get this asking me this:
override rwxrwxrwx [filename]
(It's a keynote directory that has some fonts that were downloaded from some site).
I tried answering 'yes' or 'y' but when I try just 'y' I get an error message, and when I try "yes" i get a loop if the letter 'y' down the left side of the screen. Can someone tell me what's going on and what I can do to just delete these files from my usb drive?

NAME
cdde - Compact Disc Detect & Execute
SYNOPSIS
cdde [-c filename] [-rbvVh]
DESCRIPTION
cdde is a program that detects when a cdrom drive on your system has had a disc inserted.
When it finds a disc inserted in the drive it will attempt to determine the type of the disc, and execute a specified command.
This means you can put in a dvd and your favorite dvd software will start, or put in a data cd and it will be automatically mounted for
you.
Right now cdde can detect the following types of discs:
* audio cd
* data cd
* dvd
* mixed audio/data cd
* vcd
* svcd
* blank cdr/dvdr
For now the dvd checking is just a bit of magic that checks to see if there's a "video_ts" directory on the disc. Same goes for the vcd
checking: it just looks for a "vcd" directory on the disc.
cdde reads its configuration from "~/.cdde.xml" unless otherwise specified on the command line.
OPTIONS
-r, --run
Run commands on disc already in drive when is started.
-b, --batch
Batch mode: check all drives once then exit. (implies -r)
-c, --config <filename>
Use the config file <filename>. (Default is ~/.cdde.xml)
-v, --verbose
Print out lots of information.
-V, --version
Print out version information.
-h, --help
Print Display this help and exit.
FILES
~/.cdde.xml
SEE ALSO
cdde.xml(5)
