Usage: rm [OPTION]... FILE...
Remove (unlink) the FILE(s).
-d, --directory unlink directory, even if non-empty (super-user only)
-f, --force ignore nonexistent files, never prompt
-i, --interactive prompt before any removal
-r, -R, --recursive remove the contents of directories recursively
-v, --verbose explain what is being done
--help display this help and exit
--version output version information and exit
To remove a file whose name starts with a `-', for example `-foo',
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.
