Move files and folders to the trash
Works on OS X, Linux, and Windows.
In contrast to rm which is dangerous and permanently delete files, this only moves them to the trash, which is much safer and reversible. You should not alias rm to trash however as that would break most scripts relying on rm behavior. Rather use trash from the CLI and in your own scripts. I would also recommend reading my guide on safeguarding rm.
$ npm install --global trash-cli
$ trash --help
Usage
$ trash <path|glob> [...]
Examples
$ trash unicorn.png rainbow.png
$ trash '*.png' '!unicorn.png'
Add alias t=trash to your .zshrc/.bashrc to reduce typing: $ t unicorn.png.
