About:
Rmrfrs is a command-line utility designed to safely remove files and directories based on customizable criteria. It provides a more robust alternative to standard removal commands by incorporating safety checks and flexible filtering options. The tool helps prevent accidental data loss while streamlining the cleanup of unwanted files from a filesystem.

Key Features:

Safe deletion with confirmation prompts
Flexible file filtering using patterns and criteria
Recursive directory cleaning capabilities
Cross-platform support for Unix-like systems

Use Cases:

Cleaning temporary files and build artifacts from development projects
Removing old log files or backups to free up disk space
Bulk deleting files matching specific patterns from a directory tree

Alternatives:

rm – Standard Unix command; less safe by default and lacks built-in filtering
find – More versatile for complex searches but requires more complex syntax for deletion
