rmbin is a command-line tool that provides a local recycle bin for your files. When you delete a file with rmbin, it is moved to a trash folder instead of being deleted permanently. You can later restore or permanently delete the file from the trash folder as needed.
This requires go 1.17+.
To install using go:
go install github.com/malisetti/rmbin@latestTo build a binary for the local machine architecture:
