I'm not sure this is what you want, but you could use:
del() { mv -i $* ~/.Trash; }
You can put it in ~/.bashrc
You should find a lot about this searching around.. you shouldn't use
rm as the new command's name, to keep the respect for it.
On this subject, if anyone can help:
I'm trying to make it better, something like:
for i in $*; do
dn=`dirname $i`
bn=`basename $i`
name=$dn/$bn
echo $name >> ~/.trashdb;
done
mv -i $* ~/.Trash;
Except this doesn't work.. could anyone please tell me the way to get a
file's absolute name from within a script?
Thanks in advance,
