Multiple file versions -- FLAME

[wunder]

Are you guys still talking about multiple file versions ?!?

Good grief!  I thought that everyone had aliased "rm" to "mv".
Try putting these lines in your .cshrc:

# safe rm.  moves things to /tmp, where the system can garbage collect
alias   rm      'mv \!* /tmp/wunder'

You are free to use your own login name instead of mine for your
directory.  It is polite to occasionally find and remove everything
that hasn't been touched in the last few days (use of the "find"
command is left as an exercise ...).

PS:  A friend of mine refuses to do this.  He believes that accidentally
blowing away useful files "builds character".   The mv is slower anyway.
