Command Line Question

Good morning all,
I have a question that I don't know how to google. When I issue a command
like "rm -i *.txt", it responds with a question that I type 'y' for every
line. I recall a way to issue a 'y' to every question. I thought it was 'y!'
but that doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know this trick.

Thanks,
Eric

p.s. yes, I know I can use \rm *.txt or rm -f *.txt for this specific trite
case, but there are other situations where this would be helpful.
