man rm

rm -rf directory

Quoting Peter Vogel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

> When I use rm -r directory, I get prompted for each file to be deleted,
> Is there a reply other than "y" which will go ahead and delete
> everything?
>
> Or is there a better way to get rid of a directory and all its contents?
>
> Thanks
