rmw (ReMove to Waste) functions as a command line recycle bin/trash can
|
|
utility. Optionally, it can ReMove files to Desktop trash, restore files,
|
|
list files to be selected for restore, and purge (permanently delete)
|
|
files that were trashed x number of days ago.
|
|
|
|
After rmw is installed, create the user configuration directory by typing
|
|
'rmw' and hitting enter. It's recommended to copy /etc/rmwrc (or
|
|
/usr/local/etc/rmwrc) to $HOME/.config/rmw and then rename it to 'config':
|
|
|
|
'cd ~/.config/rmw'
|
|
'~/.config/rmw$ cp /etc/rmwrc .'
|
|
'~/.config/rmw$ mv rmwrc config'
|
|
|
|
Then edit the file to suit your needs.
|
|
|
|
A generic configuration file looks like this:
|
|
|
|
WASTE = $HOME/.trash.rmw
|
|
#WASTE = $HOME/.local/share/Trash
|
|
purge_after = 90
|
|
|
|
PROTECT = /
|
|
PROTECT = $HOME
|
|
|
|
Waste folders will be created automatically. (e.g. if '$HOME/trash.rmw'
|
|
is listed in the config file, these 3 directories will be created:
|
|
$HOME/trash.rmw
|
|
$HOME/trash.rmw/files
|
|
$HOME/trash.rmw/info
|
|
|
|
If you'd like rmw to be tied in to your existing Desktop Trash, uncomment
|
|
'#WASTE = $HOME/.local/share/Trash'
|
|
|
|
What will happen is when files get rmw'ed, you'll see them in your Desktop
|
|
Trash, and rmw will check your Trash to see if it's time to purge any files.
|
|
|
|
== Purging ==
|
|
If purging is 'on', rmw will permanently delete files from the folders
|
|
specified in the configuration file after 'x' number of days. Purging
|
|
can be disabled by using 'purgeDays = 0' in configuration file. rmw will
|
|
only check once per day if it's time to purge. Use -g to force a check.
|
|
The day of the last purge is stored in $HOME/config/rmw/lastpurge
|
|
|
|
== Options ==:
|
|
|
|
-c, --config filename use an alternate configuration
|
|
-l, --list list waste directories
|
|
-p, --pause wait for a keypress before exiting
|
|
-g, --purge run purge even if it's been run today
|
|
-z, --restore <wildcard filename(s) pattern>
|
|
-s, --select select files from list to restore
|
|
-u, --undo-last undo last ReMove
|
|
-B, --bypass bypass directory protection
|
|
-v, --verbose increase output messages
|
|
-w, --warranty display warranty
|
|
-V, --version display version and license information
|
|
|
|
== -z option ==
|
|
|
|
While -z can restore files at the command line, you have to specify
|
|
the full path (wildcards ok).
|
|
Example: rmw -z ~/.trash.rmw/files/*.iso
|
|
|
|
In the future, it's planned to eliminate the need to specify the path. rmw
|
|
will automatically look in all the Waste directories.
|
|
|
|
== Protected directories ==
|
|
|
|
Presently, if a protected directory is accidently rmw'ed from the command
|
|
line, rmw will prevent sending the directory to the trash, however, files
|
|
within protected directories can still be rmw'ed.
|
|
|
|
rmw /home/andy (nothing would happen)
|
|
rmw /home/andy/* (files would get rmw'ed)
