To be ultra-safe with the 'rm' command, make it an 'ls' command
first, check that's the correct target, then do an up-arrow to
get the commandline again, type a Ctl/A to get to the beginning
of the line, Ctl/D's to delete the 'ls', then type '\rm -rf' to
execute the 'rm' and bypass the interactive questioning of 'rm -i'.
Easier:
ls xy*z
rm !$
If I have enough sense to do the 'ls' then I don't need the -i
