If you've ever used "clean" under AFS, there's a good chance you're hooked. What it does is it collects all the possible junk files in the file system and allows you to delete them all at once... so neat freaks who want to keep their home directory void of *~ .bak, #crap#, core, etc... runs "clean" once in a while..

well, at any rate... I tried to mimic the functionalities of clean with a little python script, so here is the end result... Yes, it's slower than the original C version, and it doesn't support all the command line arguments, but it works farely well... there are couple things I could do to speed it up and both of them are part of the "TODO" list.
