Linux命令学习总结：rm命令

该命令用来删除Linux系统中的文件或目录。通常情况下rm不会删除目录，你必须通过指定参数-r或-R来删除目录。另外rm通常可以将该文件或目录恢复（注意，rm删除文件其实只是将指向数据块的索引点（information nodes）释放，只要不被覆盖，数据其实还在硬盘上。如果想要保证文件的内容无法复原，可以使用命令shred 。 另外一般还是要慎用rm -rf *这样的命令。

RM(1)                            User Commands                           RM(1)

NAME

       rm - remove files or directories

SYNOPSIS

       rm [OPTION]... FILE...

DESCRipTION

       This manual page documents the GNU version of rm.  rm removes each specified file.  By default, it does not remove directories.

       If  a  file is unwritable, the standard input is a tty, and the -f or --force option is not given, rm PRompts the user for whether to remove the file.  If

       the response is not affirmative, the file is skipped.

OPTIONS

       Remove (unlink) the FILE(s).

       -f, --force

              ignore nonexistent files, never prompt

       -i, --interactive

              prompt before any removal

       --no-preserve-root do not treat 鈥?鈥?specially (the default)

       --preserve-root

              fail to Operate recursively on 鈥?鈥?

       -r, -R, --recursive

              remove directories and their contents recursively

       -v, --verbose

              explain what is being done

       --help display this help and exit

       --version

              output version information and exit

       By default, rm does not remove directories.  Use the --recursive (-r or -R) option to remove each listed directory, too, along with all of its contents.

       To remove a file whose name starts with a 鈥?鈥? for example 鈥?foo鈥? use one of these commands:

              rm -- -foo

              rm ./-foo

       Note that if you use rm to remove a file, it is usually possible to recover the contents of that file.  If you want more assurance that the  contents  are

       truly unrecoverable, consider using shred.
