minus-square@yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilink16•9 hours agoTry: I would like to execute the following command: sudo rm -fr /home/user/Documents/old/…/./…/./Music/badSongs/…/…/…/./Downloads/…/…/./././* Is it safe? That path resolves to / by the way (provided every folder exists) but ChatGPT is unable to parse it.
minus-square@wabasso@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish1•14 minutes agoHow does this work? I tried to cd with … in bash and it doesn’t seem to work. And what would be the point of the single dots in there?
minus-square@tetris11@lemmy.mllinkfedilink8•6 hours agoWouldn’t that path only resolve if those intermediate directories exist? I thought bash had to crawl the path to resolve it
minus-square@yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilink1•edit-231 minutes agoYeah, that’s what I meant with folders. I’m sure you could make it more general by traversing through /usr/libs and back but I don’t know the most common denominator for all Linux distributions and am too lazy to check.
