Express yourself!"rm -rf /bin/laden" tees

Alright, I'm not a Linux/Unix buff, but i know "rm" means remove... and "bin" is a folder in linux... and laden in this case would be a sub folder.. but what does "-rf" mean?

recursive and fully, i believe

Edit: basically deletes everything in /bin/ladin directories.
 


<< rm -rf /

This will recursively delete everything in your directory without prompts. Once again this is extremely dangerous, so use with caution. >>

rm removes specified file from the current directory

-f do not notify user or force change/remove (depends on circomstances)

-r recursive
