Question

I am trying to write a bourne-shell script that takes a string as a parameter and deletes all files in the directory containing that string
I was thinking about using find and execute rm all but I just started b-shell

find . -name $1 'core' -exec rm -i* {}\;

any help would be much appreciated. thanks.

remove.sh script:

#!/bin/sh
find . -type f -iname *$1* -exec rm -rf {} \;

usage:

$remove.sh "main"
