delete/undelete/expunge

Four years ago a guy around here screwed up, got disgusted, and
wrote delete/undelete/expunge. Builds a shadow directory in your login
directory call '.expunge'. So the structure of your tree is maintained.
'expunge' cleans the directory out, and could be run at midnight for people.
I mention this because .,<FILENAME>, while being nice, is not so cool
for 13-and-14 character filenames.
  If interested, let me know.
