trasher – replace rm and del by a trash system

Trasher is a small command-line utility that aims to replace rm.

It works by moving items to delete to a trash directory instead of deleting them immediately. As moving a single item is nearly instant (even when it’s a large directory), while deleting items recursively can take quite a long time, Trasher is faster than rm, especially for large directories.

This is free and open source software.
