Note

This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some items, such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate representation in the manpage format. Moreover, only the items specific to each command have been translated, and the general information about mtools has been dropped in the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to use the original texinfo doc.

To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

3
+0.3i
    ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

-0.3i R

To generate a html copy, run:

3
+0.3i
    ./configure; make html

-0.3i R

A premade html can be found at: \f(CW\(ifhttp://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/mtools\(is

To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

3
+0.3i
    ./configure; make info

-0.3i R

The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html. Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the quoting conventions used in info.

Description

"p mdeltree" "c removing an MS-DOS directory recursively" "c erasing an MS-DOS directory recursively" "c deleting an MS-DOS directory recursively" "c recursively removing an MS-DOS directory"

The \f(CWmdeltree command is used to delete an MS-DOS file. Its syntax is:

l I \f(CWmdeltree [\f(CW-v] msdosdirectory [msdosdirectories...] l

\f(CWMdeltree removes a directory and all the files and subdirectories it contains from an MS-DOS filesystem. An error occurs if the directory to be removed does not exist.
