-trash-cli is a command line interface to the FreeDesktop.org trashcan.
+trash-cli trashes files recording the original path, deletion date, and
+permissions. It uses the same trashcan used by KDE, GNOME, and XFCE, but
+you can invoke it from the command line (and scripts).
+
+It provides these commands:
+
+trash-put     : trashes files and directories.
+trash-empty   : empty the trashcan(s).
+trash-list    : list trashed files.
+trash-restore : restore a trashed file.
+trash-rm      : remove individual files from trash can.
