# rmsafe (remove_safely)
## Introduction
After (almost) accidentally removing a file with about week's worth of changes for my C lang assignment, I took it as an excuse to lear a bit
more of Rust and re-write the rm command.
## Basics
Instead of just rm(ing) files and folders, they instead are moved to the local trash or custom path location.
## Installation
`cargo install rmsafe`
## Usage
```
// view help
rms
// removing a single file
rmsafe test.txt
// removing a single folder; it will recursively move the folder to trash
rmsafe test_dir
// removing files with wildcard matching; removing all files ending with .o
// the shell is supposed to handle the glob expansion not the program
rmsafe -r *.o
```
Change your `.bashrc` to include the following
```
alias rm='printf "Avoid using rm!"'
```
This disallows the use of rm, you can still use `sudo rm` and not setting rmsafe to rm
ensures that you don't accidentally rm while on someone else's computer
