Solution...if you must
A quick fix is to set your home folder to "Read Only." You will be able to add and delete files within the subfolders (like ~/Documents) but you will not be able to delete ~/Docuemts or ~/Music without SUDO access. In the finder, it will cue you for your password.
no protection
making your home directory write protected does not protect you. the rm -rf command just moves into directories that it can delete. The directories in your ~ (Documents, Pictures, etc) will still be there but they will be empty. I guess that is the idea behind a recursive delete. |
