Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:01,290 --> 00:00:06,120 So far we've seen how to create for us to create directories to list the content of directories and 2 00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,250 to list the contents of files. 3 00:00:08,250 --> 00:00:11,180 Now what if you want to delete these files or directories. 4 00:00:11,430 --> 00:00:17,780 The way to do that is using the odd command to remove files or they are empty or to remove directories. 5 00:00:17,850 --> 00:00:19,680 Now note that they are MDI. 6 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:22,690 It works for empty directories. 7 00:00:23,100 --> 00:00:27,300 Here's a few examples that we're going to be using practically and a second item. 8 00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:35,490 Slash them slash this file would remove the test file under the directory temp item dir slash slash 9 00:00:35,490 --> 00:00:43,170 test dir will remove the empty test did so if the directory is not empty we won't be able to remove 10 00:00:43,170 --> 00:00:43,280 it. 11 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:49,590 Using this commands to remove a directory that is not empty we need to use the minus option which stands 12 00:00:49,590 --> 00:00:54,650 for recursive and we use that with the R and command and it would look as such. 13 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:59,750 Or minus or slash slash dir to remove the tested. 14 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,550 If it's not empty. 15 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,780 We also saw the minus option with the copy command. 16 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,710 Do you remember what it was. 17 00:01:06,930 --> 00:01:13,290 It stood for active and we use that so we don't accidentally overwrite far as one we're copying. 18 00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:18,810 The same goes for removing as if we don't want to accidentally remove a file before the next prompt 19 00:01:18,810 --> 00:01:28,230 us and ask us to verify we can use the minus ice which for example minus 40 cursive minus for interactive 20 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,070 slushed them slash desde. 21 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:36,770 It would remove the test directory and everything inside the test directory but only after Linux asked 22 00:01:36,770 --> 00:01:38,330 us to verify. 23 00:01:38,610 --> 00:01:45,090 And last but not least they are minus or F minus or against us for the cursive and the F and this instance 24 00:01:45,090 --> 00:01:51,780 stands for force and we use that in case of directed for example is being used by a program and we cannot 25 00:01:51,780 --> 00:01:58,110 normally access it or delete it if we want to force the delete regardless of what program is using it 26 00:01:58,110 --> 00:02:00,150 or what other users using it. 27 00:02:00,150 --> 00:02:02,230 We can use the commands. 28 00:02:02,340 --> 00:02:04,200 Let's see how that looks like. 29 00:02:04,410 --> 00:02:09,360 I'm going to open the graphical interface so we can also visualize what's happening on the command prompt 30 00:02:11,050 --> 00:02:18,150 and I'm going to go to the temp directory and say the temp directory as you can see there is a direct 31 00:02:18,150 --> 00:02:20,880 test on a bunch of other files on the command line. 32 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:27,390 I'm going to CD into the temp directory and I'm going to start with the easiest option by removing one 33 00:02:27,390 --> 00:02:28,520 of the files. 34 00:02:28,770 --> 00:02:33,090 I'm going to type M and the filename. 35 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,570 In this case it's a test file and hit enter. 36 00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:40,180 And as you can see on the right hand side this file is now gone. 37 00:02:43,500 --> 00:02:46,470 Now I want to remove a directory in this instance. 38 00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:52,980 It's an empty directory which is the test dir to do that I can use the odd dir space. 39 00:02:53,110 --> 00:02:55,650 Dear Let's try that with a good one. 40 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,510 If you remember D-1 had another directory inside it. 41 00:02:59,700 --> 00:03:02,880 And now Linux is complaining it's telling me that it is not empty. 42 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,760 I cannot remove it. 43 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,230 What do we do in this instance. 44 00:03:07,260 --> 00:03:10,170 We use the M command with the minus option 45 00:03:14,020 --> 00:03:15,540 and there we go it's gone. 46 00:03:15,910 --> 00:03:21,570 So in this instance we remove the old one and whatever was inside did one. 47 00:03:21,580 --> 00:03:29,230 Now let me try the interactive option with test file to get back a prompt asking us do you want to remove 48 00:03:29,230 --> 00:03:29,990 the file. 49 00:03:30,220 --> 00:03:33,020 I'm going to answer yes and the file is gone. 50 00:03:33,490 --> 00:03:36,480 And last but not least we saw the force option. 51 00:03:36,730 --> 00:03:41,440 Let me go into the documents directory on the right hand side and the graphical interface 52 00:03:51,330 --> 00:03:53,370 and to do that on the command prompt. 53 00:03:53,490 --> 00:03:55,440 And this is where the tool is useful. 54 00:03:55,430 --> 00:03:58,640 Remember when we do this and the earlier sections. 55 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:06,900 I'm going to try r.m minus RF Tilda which stands for my home directory and documents slash the directory 56 00:04:06,900 --> 00:04:09,900 name using the minus f option. 57 00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:14,970 I'm forcing the removal of this directory in case it's being used by another to use it for example. 58 00:04:15,090 --> 00:04:16,620 And now it's gone. 59 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,590 Pretty easy stuff straightforward. 60 00:04:18,630 --> 00:04:20,680 Let's move on to the next section. 6101
