Hello:
I've just realized that my .thumbnails folder occupies 3.3 Gbyte space. I wanted to empty it by: rm .thumbnails/large/*
but got the error message: bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
The file number in the folder is ~ 60 000.
Why rm is not working? Is this a bug?
How can I delete these files w/o removing the folder itself?
