Trash

About

trash is command-line tool for macOS, written in Swift, that moves files to the current user's trash folder.

It is compatible with the macOS rm command, so you can alias the later, and no longer worry about permanently deleting your precious files. 😉

Installation

trash can be installed with Homebrew:

brew install --HEAD macmade/tap/trash

Shell alias

You can alias the default rm command to trash, using the following line into your shell profile file:

if [ -f /usr/local/bin/trash ]; then alias rm="/usr/local/bin/trash"; fi

License

trash is released under the terms of the MIT license.
