- NAME
- Delete - Delete up to ten files or directories.
-
- SYNOPSIS
- Delete [up to 10 names] ALL QUIET ASK
-
- DESCRIPTION
- Delete deletes the names you specify, if there is a problem
- with the deletion delete will inform you. If you wish to
- delete a directory that contains other files, you must use
- the ALL switch. As with most ARP commands that deal with
- Files, you can specify a wildcard pattern in any or all of
- the positions.
-
- ARP also allows you to interactively delete the files by
- specifying the ASK switch. If you use ASK, delete will
- display the files one by one, with a question mark. If you
- type 'Y' followed by return, the file will be deleted, and
- the next one will be displayed. Any other character will
- not cause the file to be deleted.
-
- If you use wildcards, Delete will display the names of the
- files as they are deleted. You can prevent this by using
- the QUIET switch.
-
- EXAMPLE
- Delete * or Delete #? Delete all files in the
- current directory
-
- Delete * ASK or Delete * A Ask about deleteing each file
- in the current directory.
