Hey,

Im trying to nuke a bunch of directories that have subdirs, pics, files etc. Im using the command rm -r <directoryname>. However i get a prompt for each file within these dirs im trying to delete.

Is there a way to nuke these directories / subdirs / files without having to confirm each file?

Thanks!

PS - i know.... newb question so flame at will
