RE: Deleting a whole subtree in the IFS quickly and easily? - For the QSH impaired...

Using WRKLNK navigate to the parent directory of the one you want to delete.
Choose option 2 to Edit, then option 9 (Recursive Delete) on the directory
you want to delete.

subject: Deleting a whole subtree in the IFS quickly and easily?

Does anybody know of a quick and easy way to delete an entire subtree in
the IFS? I tried setting up a test directory, then doing a RMDIR <dirname>
UNLINK(*YES), but it didn't work. (It didn't even work on a subdirectory
of my test directory, that only contains a single file).
