Desktop +integration is optional however, and by default, rmw will only use a +waste folder separated from your desktop trash. One of its unique +features is the ability to purge files from your Waste/Trash +directories after x number of days. + +Web site: <https://remove-to-waste.info/> + +## Build Status + +* [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/theimpossibleastronaut/rmw.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/theimpossibleastronaut/rmw) +* [![Build Status](https://semaphoreci.com/api/v1/andy5995/rmw-3/branches/master/badge.svg)](https://semaphoreci.com/andy5995/rmw-3) + +## Screenshots + +![rmw usage output](https://remove-to-waste.info/images/Screenshot_2019-07-05_22-47-51.png) + +[More Screenshots](https://remove-to-waste.info/screenshots.html) + +## Contact / Support + +* [Bug Reports and Feature Requests](https://github.com/theimpossibleastronaut/rmw/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports-and-feature-requests) +* [General Help, Support, Discussion](https://remove-to-waste.info/#support) + +## Required libraries + +* libncursesw (ncurses-devel on some systems, such as CentOS) +* gettext (or use --disable-nls if you only need English language support) + +If you are building from source, you will need the libncursesw(5 or +6)-dev package from your operating system distribution. On some systems +just the ncurses packages is needed, and it's often already installed. + +## Compiling + +### As a normal user: + +Use `../configure --help` to view available compile-time options. + + mkdir build + cd build + ../configure + make + +### Installing without superuser privileges + +If you would like to install rmw without superuser privileges, use a prefix +that you have write access to. Example: + + ../configure --prefix=$HOME/usr + make + make install + +The rmw binary will be installed to `$HOME/usr/bin` and documentation to +`$HOME/usr/doc`. + +### If configure fails + +On **OSX**, ncursesw isn't provided by default but can be installed +using `brew install ncurses`. Then precede `./configure` with +`PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/ncurses/lib/pkgconfig"` Example: + + PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/ncurses/lib/pkgconfig" ../configure + +If you can't use [brew](https://brew.sh/), or install libncursesw or +libmenuw some other way, rmw will use `ncurses` but you may experience +[this minor +bug](https://github.com/theimpossibleastronaut/rmw/issues/205). + +Note: rmw has been built on **Windows** 2 years ago using Cygwin but it +didn't use the proper directories. We have no Windows developers +working on this project and are hoping that some will join soon!. As +stated in the description, the goal of this project is a +"cross-platform" utility; so getting rmw to work reliably on Windows is +still on the TODO list. + +## Uninstall / Cleaning up + +* make uninstall (uninstalls the program if installed with 'make install`) +* make distclean (removes files in the build directory created by +`configure` and 'make') + +## Usage +``` +== First-time use == + +After rmw is installed, running `rmw` will create a configuration file +(rmwrc) in $HOME/.config (or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME). Edit the file as +desired. + +== Configuration File == + +Documentation explaining the configuration can be found in your config +file. + +Waste folders will be created automatically; e.g. if '$HOME/.local/share/Waste' +is uncommented in the config file, these 3 directories will be created: +$HOME/.local/share/Waste +$HOME/.local/share/Waste/files +$HOME/.local/share/Waste/info + +If one of the WASTE folders is on removable media, then the user has the +option of appending ',removable'. + +If a folder has ',removable' appended to it, rmw will not try to create +it; it must be initially created manually. If the folder exists when +rmw is run, it will be used; if not, it will be skipped. Once you +create "example_waste", rmw will automatically create +example_waste/info and example_waste/files + + e.g: WASTE=/mnt/sda10000/example_waste, removable + +== Features and Options == + +Usage: rmw [OPTION]... FILE... +ReMove the FILE(s) to a WASTE directory listed in configuration file + + or: rmw -s + or: rmw -u + or: rmw -z FILE... +Restore FILE(s) from a WASTE directory + +-h, --help +-c, --config filename use an alternate configuration +-l, --list list waste directories +-g, --purge run purge even if it's been run today +-o, --orphaned check for orphaned files (maintenance) +-f, --force allow purge to run +-e, --empty completely empty (purge) all waste folders +-v, --verbose increase output messages +-w, --warranty display warranty +-V, --version display version and license information + + + ===] Restoring [=== + +-z, --restore <wildcard filename(s) pattern> +-s, --select select files from list to restore +-u, --undo-last undo last ReMove + +== Purging == + +If purging is 'on', rmw will permanently delete files from the folders +specified in the configuration file after 'x' number of days. Purging can be +disabled by using 'purge_after = 0' in configuration file. rmw will only check +once per day if it's time to purge (use -g to check more often). + +The time of the last automatic purge check is stored in `purge-time`, +located in $HOME/.local/share/rmw (or $XDG_DATA_HOME/rmw). + +== -e, --empty == + +Completely empty (purge) all waste folders + +== -u, --undo == + +Restores files that were last rmw'ed. No arguments for `-u` are +necessary. The list of files that were last rmw'ed is stored in `mrl`, located in +$HOME/.local/share/rmw (or $XDG_DATA_HOME/rmw). + +== -z, --restore == + +To restore a file, or multiple files, specify the path to them in in the +<WASTE>/files folder (wildcards ok). +e.g. 'rmw -z ~/.local/share/Trash/files/foo*' + +Files can also be restored using only the basename, from within any directory. +NOTE: That feature will not process wildcards unless the user is in a +<WASTE>/files folder and the filespec actually exists in the present working +directory. + +== -f, --force == + +A change from previous versions, purge is allowed to run without the '-f' +option. If you'd rather require the use of '-f', you can add the line +'force_required' in your configuration file. + +rmw will refuse to purge directories if they contain non-writable +subdirectories. You can use -f 2 times if you ever see a message that tells +you "permission denied; directory still contains files" (e.g. rwm -gff). + +``` |
