Documentation

Overview

remove files and directories.

SYNOPSIS

rm [-dfiRrv] FILE ...

DESCRIPTION

rm attempts to remove non-directory type files specified as arguments regardless of the file's permissions.

The options are as follows:

-d        Remove empty directories.

-f        Skip prompts and ignore warnings.

-i        Prompt before each removal.

-R, -r    Remove directories and their contents recursively.

-v        Print a message when actions are taken.

It is an error to attempt to remove the root directory or the files “.” or “..”. It is forbidden to remove the file “..” merely to avoid the antisocial consequences of inadvertently doing something like “rm -r .*”.
