I get a long list of read-only protected files when I run
rm -r trunk | yes
I am trying to answer yes to all by one command.
How can you answer yes to all questions?

A:
You have it backward. It's "yes | rm -r trunk", but the better command would be to have rm not ask you in the first place with rm -rf trunk.

This will also remove the directories themselves (rm does not do this by default). However, I'd wager that's usually what you want anyway.
