mdeltree(1)		     General Commands Manual		     mdeltree(1)

Name
     mdeltree - recursively delete an MSDOS directory and its contents

Note of warning
     This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo docu-
     mentation, and may not be entirely accurate or complete.  See  the  end  of
     this man page for details.

Description
     The mdeltree command is used to delete an MS-DOS file. Its syntax is:

     mdeltree [-v] msdosdirectory [msdosdirectories...]

     Mdeltree  removes	a directory and all the files and subdirectories it con-
     tains from an MS-DOS file system. An error occurs if the  directory  to  be
     removed does not exist.

Viewing the texi doc
     This  manpage  has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo docu-
     mentation. 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, not all information has been translated into the
     manpage version.  Thus I strongly advise you to use  the  original  texinfo
     doc.   See the end of this manpage for instructions how to view the texinfo
     doc.

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

		   ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi

     *	    To generate a html copy,  run:

		   ./configure; make html

     A premade html can  be  found  at	`http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/man-
     ual/mtools.html'

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

		   ./configure; make info

     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 con-
     ventions used in info.
