A handy shell alias when working with python
Ever want to clean out all the compiled python files out of a directory tree? Maybe you don’t entirely trust the system you’re working on and you want to make sure the source files are being checked? Maybe you just don’t like looking at them? Either way, stick this in your ~/.bash_profile (or similar):
alias rmpyc="find . -name '*.pyc' -print | xargs rm -f"
(Please test with echo, and watch out for typos, rm -f can be a nasty bedfellow.)
