Trash-put

trash-put - Command - line trash utility

SYNOPSIS

trash [OPTION] ... [ARGUMENTS] ...

trash-put [OPTION] ... [ARGUMENTS] ...

DESCRIPTION

Trash-cli package provides a command line interface trashcan utility compliant with the FreeDesktop.org Trash Specification. It remembers the name, original path, deletion date, and permissions of each trashed file.

Files trashed from the home partition will be in either $XDG_DATA_HOME/Trash or ~/.local/share/Trash/ (if $XDG_DATA_HOME is not defined or empty).

Files trashed from other partitions will be in one of the two places:

- $top_dir/.Trash/$uid

- $top_dir/.Trash-$uid

Where:

- $top_dir is the mount point of the volume containing the file to be removed

- $uid is the numeric ID of the deleting user

The first option $top_dir/.Trash/$uid works only when .Trash dir has the sticky bit set. The second option is used when the first is not viable.

ARGUMENTS

Names of files or directories to move to the trash can.

OPTIONS

-f

Silently ignore any files or directories that do not exist. Do not print error messages, and do not return a nonzero status to the caller, because of any such nonexistent arguments.

-h, --help

Show help message and exit.

--trash-dir=TRASHDIR

Use TRASHDIR as the trash folder.

-v, --verbose

Explain what is being done.

--version

Show the program's version number and exit.

$ trash-put foo   # trashes foo
