Opppppsss you did it again
It only cover rm mistakes but is so KISSly great : trash-d will alias rm so that all that you rm goes to the bin instead of disappearing for ever :

What is the benefit of using `trash-cli` over manually making a `mv` function to do that for you?
If you want to alias rm, look into trash-d, which is designed for exactly that.

what is you recommended way to protect accidental delete woth rm -rf in opensuse
i ended up using shell-safe-rm plus trash-cli and my own wrapper script around rm that verifies some rules like for example the argument don't start with '/' , if i want to delete for example /home/shin/.local/somefile then the script will not let me and suggest to cd to /home/me/.local and delete from there , same if i do rm /var/somedir.

Ask HN: Can I see your scripts?
I use a script called `shell-safe-rm` [1], aliased as `rm` in interactive shells, such that I don't normally use `rm` directly. Instead of directly removing files, they are placed in the trash folder so they can be recovered if they were mistakenly deleted. Highly recommend using a script/program like this to help prevent accidental data loss.

F!ck I just did a “‘rm -rf *” in my home directory 🥹💔
You could think about using trash-cli or safe-rm if you're too trigger happy with your terminal

trash-d: A near drop-in replacement for rm that uses the trash bin
So what's really is the difference/advantage compared to at least five other similar utilities already existing (trash-cli, shell-safe-rm, rm-trash, rmtrash, crap)? Can't really be that it uses D as the programming language. As a matter of fact why're there five utilities doing the same thing in the first place?

I meant I'm using safe-rm now but I was using another wrapper when I was younger for who knows why
What are some alternatives?
When comparing trash-d and shell-safe-rm you can also consider the following projects:
trash-cli - Command line interface to the freedesktop.org trashcan.
rm-trash - A "rm-trash" is meant to be used in place of rm system command in linux . This script will safely delete your files and put them in the trash for later retrieval.
shellfirm - Intercept any risky patterns (default or defined by you) and prompt you a small challenge for double verification
rmtrash - Put files (and directories) in trash using the `trash-put` command in a way that is, otherwise as `trash-put` itself, compatible to GNUs `rm` and `rmdir`
