Removing a file or directory
Please do not remove any thing, if you do not know what it is used for. Do not know, DONOT TOUCH!!! Once you remove it, it is gone! I like to do daily level 0 backups!{unscheduled}

rm        Removes file or directories, you have to own the file or directory.
rm filename

rm -r directoryname
