trash-cli .. trash can management.

trash-cli

Quite nice. Remember to install with pip which allows easy uninstall.

sudo apt-get install python-setuptools
sudo easy_install pip

sudo pip install trash-cli

To uninstall:-

sudo pip uninstall trash-cli

You can use it instead of rm by inserting an alias in .bashrc (That way you can restore files/folders that would normally be gone for good when using rm command)

alias rm='trash-put'

I have tried it in SL6.1 and it works very well - however I will refrain from using it as root just in case &
despite my test with an old rkhunter log file which was restored without problems. (sudo restore-trash or
su -c "restore-trash"). OR do you think it's safe as houses with the alias ??
