rmtrash

If you're after a practical and efficient way of moving files and folders to OS X's Trash without deleting them completely, rmtrash is the software for you. This small program is specifically designed to offer an easy-to-use Trash feature that makes it simple to move any file or folder to a designated Trash location, which is particularly useful when you decide later that you want to retrieve your file.

One of the greatest benefits of rmtrash is that it allows you to specify a user that you wish to move the file to. You can move the file to another user's Trash, making it easy to share files with others without running the risk of accidentally deleting important data. Additionally, using sudo can ensure that your file isn't moved to root's Trash, which could encounter problems deleting the file if you don't have permission to do so.

The installation of rmtrash is effortless, and there are two ways to go about it: use sudo ./installer from the current directory, or copy the rmtrash program file to your desired location, and the man page if you wish to install that too. If you opt to use the installer, you may customize the install path by providing the path you wish to install as an argument, and it will install your software to that specific location.

Overall, rmtrash is an incredibly handy and practical tool that can be incredibly valuable for keeping your important files safe by allowing you to store them in a designated Trash feature, eliminating the risk of unintentionally deleting your essential data. The software is easy to install and user-friendly, and it offers a host of customizable features to cater to your specific needs. Highly recommended!
