[ale] recovering an ext3 drive

[jb at sourceillustrated.com (John Wells)]

Drew,

Make a directory with:

mkdir ~/.mytrash

Then, add this to your ~/.bash_profile (assuming you're using bash):

function rm()
{
    mv $@ ~/.mytrash
}

Now, when you "rm" you actually move to ~/.mytrash.

Wow.  7:30 on a Monday morning and I've already brought the Linux command
line up to Window's standards.  I feel productive ;-P.
