In this ,,, | while [ $? -eq 0 ]; do | set -- * | test $# -gt 0 || break | rm -fr -- "$@" | done the "test $# -gt 0" is pointless, it cannot fail, the break can never be executed. The loop also depends upon the exit status of whatever the previous command was (though that is easily overcome.) But I have no idea what this has to do with whether or not a -v option should be added to the spec for rm ? Maybe I am missing something? kre
