To alias, or not to alias

[louisremi]

Unless there's a distinction I do not understand, the Readme both advise aliasing rm to trash... and not doing it.

You should not alias rm to trash however as that would break most scripts relying on rm behavior.

Add alias rm=trash to your .zshrc/.bashrc to reduce typing & safely trash files: $ rm unicorn.png.

The first is wrong. I guess when I wrote this I was not aware aliases doesn't apply in scripts, but only when run interactively.

Perfect!
