certainly not with xargs -rf, but with xargs rm -rf
it works similar to find's built-in exec method using as argument
whatever matches results to.
find / -name python3.4 -exec rm -rf {}
So both have same effect i assume.
Yes, but they were no xargs in the command lines you wrote originally, Nikos. bla bla | rm ... is not the same as bla bla | xargs rm ... do you suffer of some kind of visual illness? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
