Il me semble que le 15/5/03 à 11:44 -0700, Will Leingang nous racontait:

Please do not post such commands even as a joke.
I don't know for Windows, but on MacOS X, there is no good way to
recover data erased with rm, and most users do not have a good backup
policy.
Sorry to be so serious, but most MacOS X users are not really Unix
experts and I wouldn't want any to lose data because of a stupid
command entered in the terminal.
