And at least on our Macs and on many linux distributions, the "f"
wouldn't be necessary in most cases.
On the other hand,
rm */*.brf
without any -r or -rf
will indeed get rid of all brf files in all ssubdirectories of the
directory you are in. Depending on your permissions, you could have
some problems if you do it from the /(slash) directory, but from
your home directory ithe aboe construction does get rid of all brf
files in your home directory with all its subdirectories.
