Unix Command Line - Delete command

[gids.rs@sasktel.net]

Just finished "The Navigator" command, which now works flawlessly.  Had started on the "Undelete" command when a brainstorm hit me.  Why not make a "Delete" command that works like the Macintosh.  So, here are three more commands that I am currently working on to work with the Unix Command Line.

DELETE, UNDELETE and EMPTYTRASH

DELETE (called DEL for short, so the command is distinguished from Basic.systems Delete command) - This moves the directory entry for the file you want to Delete, to a TRASH folder.  Also kept up to date is, a text file of where the deleted file came from that is stored in the trash folder.

UNDELETE - will be able to read the text file and return the undeleted file to its original location.  If the file is not found in the trash, then UNDELETE can perform a check to see if the file was actually deleted and recover it then, if it has not been overwritten

EMPTYTRASH - does the actual delete of all files in the folder called TRASH, including the text file that holds all locations
