# Saying Yes
|
||||
|
||||
Tired of being prompted for confirmation by command-line utilities? Wish you
|
||||
could blindly respond 'yes' to whatever it is they are bugging you about?
|
||||
The `yes` command is what you've been looking for.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ yes | rm -r ~/some/dir
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will respond `y` as `rm` asks for confirmation on removing each and
|
||||
every file in that directory.
|
||||
|
||||
`yes` is just as good at saying *no*. Give it `no` as an argument and it
|
||||
will happily (and endlessly) print `no`.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ yes no
|
||||
```
