Hi All!
i want rm command to be converted into
mv (whatever is there after rm command) Trash/
where Trash/ is the final destination.
But the alias command doesn't have any support for the above mentioned
purpose. Could you suggest me a way to convert rm into mv ?

I'm not sure this is what you want, but you could use:
del() { mv -i $* ~/.Trash; }
You can put it in ~/.bashrc
You should find a lot about this searching around.. you shouldn't use
rm as the new

Quick solution:
here=`pwd`
for i in $*; do
absolutename=/${i}
I take it you mean
absolutename=${here}/${i} ?
This still has one problem: we have to treat deletions with absolute
pathnames.. there should be a command or something:

Yes, that was what I intended.
