Usage

// load autoload composer
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$shred = new Shred\Shred($n); // $n (optional) <= Number of iterations. Default 3.

$shred->remove('folder/file.txt'); // <= Overwrite and Remove.
$shred->remove('folder/file.txt', false); // <= Only overwrite.

// Check if remove
if ($shred->remove('folder/file.txt')) {
    // The file is truncated & removed.
} else {
    // Impossible to overwrite or remove the file. See filepath & file permissions.
}

Shred overwrite 'n' times the file for make more difficult to recovery (Imposible is nothing!). Obviously inspired in shred for linux. If you want to delete large files, or repeat a large number of times the interaction should increase the execution time of the script., _(*5)

ini_get('max_execution_time'); // Max execution script time in seconds.
set_time_limit($s); // $s => Set max time limit in seconds.
