Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers Can you do remove core file based on what created them :( Post 303035020 by Neo on Saturday 11th of May 2019 04:36:52 AM

Maybe just move them to a temporary directory and then manually inspect them before you delete them?

Normally I am careful about removing files using a script and then to move them first, and delete later.

Then you can fine tune the script, over time, and when you are fully confident in your script, you can consider removing them more directly?

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename] DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS. The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed. OPTIONS
The following option is supported: -a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it. NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts. ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes: +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ | ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |Availability |SUNWcsu | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ |CSI |Enabled | +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+ SEE ALSO
