I just spent a week looking for a program that can replace what ccleaner does on windows.
the closest thing was a program called kleansweep. but it doesn't clean up recent files, so I searched a found a script for gnome apps, but not kde, so I wrote my own.
I figured someone else might like them so here they are:

as you can see there is a lot of room for improvement if you know how to do it better, please be sure to comment.
also there are programs that it misses completely (like openoffice).
hopeful someone finds this useful.
