Ok, this whole thing with the Terminal is new to me. But I am trying to empty my Trash because I have a TOn of locked files (That mysteriously became locked, but that's a different question that can be addressed later). Anyway....I was able to use "sudo rm -r ~/.Trash/*" to clear my Trash once. Now when I try to do it, nothing happens. Here is a sample of what I have done in the Terminal:
Last login: Tue Feb 11 09:32:59 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
[dsl000-000-000:~] username% login
login: username
Password:
Last login: Tue Feb 11 09:34:56 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
tcsh: Cannot open /etc/termcap.
tcsh: using dumb terminal settings.
[dsl000-000-000:~] username% "sudo rm -r ~/.Trash/*"
sudo rm -r ~/.Trash/*: Command not found.
[dsl000-000-000:~] username%
Am I doing something wrong? Is there an easier way to force empty my trash? Thanks in advance.
