Hm that's a cool trick. IIRC some distributions (Suse?) had a 'bash' clause where you couldn't do "rm -rf /" without 'y'. My 'zsh' has this one too, when I 'rm -rf /some/dir/' always asks if I'm "sure". Truth to be told, I'm not even expecting the text in "stdout" anymore, my finger goes to the 'y' automatically, which means that if I make something stupid it won't be able to protect me :-P The last couple of years I stopped doing 'stupid things' by stop working on the shell when I'm very tired. That was the cause of my rm-related-incidents in the past :-)
