find / | grep name_of_files >> test
rm `cat test`

Better still...

rm `find/ | grep name_of_file`

Better command...

rm `ls -l | grep "/pkgs/nmh" | awk '{print $9}'`

  Lists files in a directory that happened to symlinks to /pkgs/nmh; retrieves the
  name of that file {print $9}; and the whole miserable load is purged via
  the command "rm".

  Example of ls -l output:
  
   lwrxwrxwrx 1 simon group 154 May 10 13:34 inc -> /pkgs/nmh/etc

   Note "inc" is in the ninth position 

The BEST delete of all!!


Deleting huge files

  find . -type f | xargs rm
