DELETE.EXE is a Win32 console application that deletes
files. Win32
Console application means that it runs in a Windows 98,
ME, 2000, or XP
command prompt. It is an improvment over the DEL or
ERASE internal
command that comes with the operating system. Delete's
features include:
* allows multiple file specifications on the command
line; * optionally deletes Hidden, System, or Read Only
files;
* optionally prompts for permission to delete any file;
* optionally deletes files in directories below the
current one;
* optionally removes empty directories below the
current one;
* optionally overwrites files before deleting them; and
* optionally deletes only files dated before, after, or
between dates.
* optionally deletes only zero length files.
* optionally deletes only files that are not present in
a reference directory (useful for mirroring a directory
structure when used with Xcopy).
DEL16.exe is the old DOS version of this program that
runs under pure DOS, and can't see long file names.
