 * Hi,
 * I want to ask if there’s an equivalent command to clear js/css cache via linux
   command. I have thought some commands like ‘rm -rf *.js *.css *.img’, but I don’t
   know if they are absolutely safe/correct to use. (I use cache to provide html
   files, it costs too much when a js/css file is missing)
 * Thank you!

 * you will indeed need to also clear the HTML cache, but the easiest way to remove
   AO’s cache would be to `rm -rf wp-content/cache/autoptimize/*` from the root 
   of your WordPress installation and then clear your HTML cache as well.
 * hope this helps,
    frank
