  • when i try to delete it says rm : newfile: is a directory

  • @MrEmoji Well your error message is your answer, your 'newfile' is a directory, so if you want to delete it run rm -r newfile

    rmdir newfile is perhaps better as it will only allow you to delete and empty directory. rm -r newfile will blitz everything in it, no questions asked, no recycle bin.

    That's why I love Unix; no molly-coddling here!
