That doesn't really cut the mustard, IMO. If a `D' flag was off the window, you won't even know whether that file was deleted, so you won't know whether you want to undo. At best, you'll see a message telling you how many files were deleted. Plus, just what does undo do? Will a user be assured that _all_ deletions were undone? Undo does things in packets. A user can easily worry that only some of the deletions were undone. > > Perhaps if we had undo, it would make more sense to have the > > confirmation nil by default.

Undo is no substitute for prompting for confirmation, IMO.
