I'd change it to something like this as a "safe rm" :
#!/bin/bash
TRASHDIR=~/trash/
if [ ! -d $TRASHDIR ]; then
mkdir $TRASHDIR
fi
for A in $*; do
if [ -d $A ]; then
echo "Can't remove directory: $A"
else
mv $A $TRASHDIR
fi
done

Also you could add something to your crontab or just an "cleantrash"
that has something like "find ~/trash/ -type f -mtime 20 -exec rm -f {}
\;"

I think that " du -h / |grep -v '/.*/' " would be more comfortable to
read.
