Rmw (ReMove to Waste) is a safe-remove utility for the command line. Its goal is to conform to the FreeDesktop.org Trash specification and therefore be compatible with KDE, GNOME, XFCE, and others. Desktop integration is optional however, and by default, rmw will only use a waste folder separated from your desktop trash.

Rmw 0.7.04
Changes To get user's home dir, revert back to retrieving via environmentalvariable The config file is now read from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rmwrc or~/.config/rmwrc.`lastpurge` is now 'purge-time' and stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/rmw or~/.local/share/rmw.`lastrmw` is now 'mrl' and stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/rmw or~/.local/share/rmw.The default Waste folder (specified in the configuration file) is now~/.local/share/Waste instead of ~/trash.rmw.The ~/.config/rmw directory is no longer used. It can be deleted,but you may first want to copy your old configuration file to the newlocation.

Rmw 0.7.03
Changes rmw now gets the user's HOMEDIR from a passwd struct (see), not from the environmentalvariable.A waste folder can now use the $UID (user id) variable. Example:/mnt/fs/Trash-$UIDBecause rmw automatically creates a config file in the user's homedirectory, rmw no longer searches in /etc (or /usr/local/etc..) for rmwrc.It can be removed from your system if installed previously.A lot of code clean-up and refactoring since the last release.
