Name
rmdir - removes a directory from a multilevel directory
structure
Syntax
rmdir [drive:]path
Description
The rmdir command removes a directory that is empty except
for the ``.'' and ``..'' shorthand symbols. Before you can
remove a directory entirely, you must delete its files and
subdirectories.
Example:
Suppose you want to remove a directory named \user\pete.
You first issue a dir command for the \user\pete path to
ensure that the directory is empty; then you enter the
following command:
rmdir \user\pete
Notes
rmdir/rd is an internal command.
