man dndel (Commandes) - Delete a file on a VMS system
NAME
dndel - Delete a file on a VMS system
SYNOPSIS
dndel
[options] file-name
Options:
[-ivVh]
DESCRIPTION
dndel deletes files held on VMS systems. The filename parameter may specify a single file or a wildcard (remember to use VMS wildcards).
If you specify -i or -v then dndel will open two connections to the VMS machine (much as VMS itself does). Otherwise it will attempt to use a single connection. One side-effect of this is that the deletion process will fail at the first file that cannot be deleted.
OPTIONS
- -i
- Interactive. Prompt before deleting a file.
- -v
- Verbose. Print the names of files that have been deleted
- -h -?
- Displays help for using the command.
- -V
- Show the version of the tools package that dndel comes from.
EXAMPLES
dndel -i 'myvax::oldfile;*'
dndel 'tramp"patrick pjc123"::interactive'
