Picking a nit for safety.
One should never ever say
rm -rf /anything
If one were to make any of a number of mistakes, such as accidentally
pressing RETURN or SPACE after any of the /'s, there will terrible damage
done. Instead, cd into the desired containing directory and then rm -rf
name, no leading /.
cd /usr/lib
rm -rf win32
If this gets screwed up, the damage is confined to a much smaller part of
the system.
