Trash items from the command line in OS X

Posted on October 3rd 2009 | 1 comments.

Apparently someone noticed that a Mac with a command line ought to make it easy to move items to the Trash from that command line and wrote a fine utility to handle it.

I didn’t actually know that ruby gems could be used to install handy shell commands. Should have figured that was doable because of rails, but for general purpose commands? Brilliant!

Nice work Jase! You should keep this up as you have a nice perspective that has a knack for finding simple tools. I do think you should change your character limit to like 500.
