Deleting a file prompts for a Yes or No

Hi.. I have been asked to delete files in a certain directory in our AIX server, but the problem is, there are over 1000 files to delete. I am prompted by a yes (y) or a no (n) each time and i don't wanna type in a 'y' a thousand times.. :frowning: Is there a command that i can use to make things faster? I am not the owner of the files, but only a part of the group.

rm -f might not popup a y/n question. Maybe your rm is an alias to rm -i or something. Also you might want to specify them with wildcards if not done already.
