You can setup some kind of Trashcan yourself. Make a directory on your system somewhere and make an alias for rm: alias rm = 'mv ? /tmp/Trashcan' not sure about the ? which should be the filename. Or write a script for this. If you are on a multiuser system, you definitely have to write a script, which moves the deleted files into subdirs in the Trashcan which are unreadable by other users.
