* Why didn't rm say they were open?

I'm not sure it can know.


* And by which process, so I'd know if it's OK to kill it?

As Martin said, lsof(8) and fuser(1) are your friends.


So it can know if it wanted to - don't apologize for the software when

Thanks. Exactly. Why aren't lsof(8) and fuser(1) the friends of rm(N)? And how and why do you people remember these /numbers/? And what's the deal with the stupid man system, and maybe it's time to /fix/ it, and maybe rm can be fixed while they're at it?
