In 20+ years of linuxing, I've never thought about putting the f first until now.
Imagine my mixed emotions when I’ve been doing ‘ls -la’ since I remember and watch someone do ‘ls -al’.
I cut my teeth on DOS. I use dir instead of ls. Please don't shame me.
I use -al because it's in alphabetical order and reminds me of "all".
I always do - lha or -la, but sometimes I did -a and I want the L, so I reuse the old command and add a l, making it -al.
I always put the f last, as in first the whole command, then go back and write the -rf, just because if I accidentally press enter I don't want an uncompleted path to be destroyed.
