Without the "-d"?
Tried that, didn't like it (I did need to remove directories).
You don't need "-d" to remove directories. The "-r" option will do
that. The "-d" option removes *empty* directories. "rm" will not
delete directories without an option indicating that it should do so:
[gordon@hurricane:~/test]$ mkdir a
[gordon@hurricane:~/test]$ \rm a
rm: cannot remove 'a': Is a directory
[gordon@hurricane:~/test]$ \rm -d a
