never "rm -rf" the wrong thing again with this handy script

• rmdryrun

  6 8 10.0 Shell

  rmdryrun is a safe preview of the standard rm command in Linux. It performs a dry run of the removal process, printing the list of files and directories that would be deleted without actually executing the deletion.

Since rm -rf is so dangerous, I've put together this handy script to let you preview what files will be deleted. Let me know what you think!

  Command line interface to the freedesktop.org trashcan.

There are a number of foss tools that work with the freedesktop trashcan concept on Linuxes/BSDs, like https://github.com/andreafrancia/trash-cli. Bunch of desktop envs' programs also use this, so it's nearer to OS-wide standardized behavior.
