Delete Manual page 123
F8, Shift+F8
This command allows you to delete file(s) and empty
directories. There are three ways you can use this command:
. You can delete the file or directory under the cursor
bar in a file panel, or the directory under the cursor
in a tree panel.
. You can delete a group of files that you've marked
with the Ins key or Select group and Unselect group.
. Advanced users: You can type in the name of the file
to delete (or a group of files if you use DOS wildcard
characters). Press Shift + F8 or hold down Shift when
you select Delete from the Files menu. Be careful,
though, as you can delete a lot of files when you use
the DOS * wildcard character.
Read-only files:
If a file is marked as read-only, you'll be asked for
confirmation before the Commander deletes. Hint: if
you want to delete a group of files that are marked
read-only, used the File attributes command in the
Files menu to clear the read-only attribute.
Note: This command updates the treeinfo.ncd file when you
delete a directory.
