NAME

mdel − delete an MSDOS file

SYNOPSIS

mdel [ -v ] msdosfile [ msdosfiles...  ]

DESCRIPTION

Mdel deletes a file on an MSDOS filesystem. 

Mdel will allow the following command line option:

v Verbose mode.  Echo the filenames as they are processed. 

Mdel will ask for verification prior to removing a read−only file. 

MSDOS subdirectory names are supported with either the ’/’ or ’\´ separator.  The use of the ’\´ separator or wildcards will require the names to be enclosed in quotes to protect them from the shell. 

The mcd command may be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to MSDOS), otherwise the default is A:/. 

SEE ALSO

mcd(1)

BUGS

Allows multiple arguments, which does not follow the MSDOS convention.
