How do I clean up my account to get more space (core files specifically)?

Core files are dumps of memory that are kept in a file for debugging purposes
when a program crashes. Typically you do not want these on your directories,
since they are rather large files. You can periodically run a command that
finds and removes the core files:
find ~ -name core -exec /bin/rm {} \;
