I have Qshell but when I try to rm the directory it tells me the files are read only and won't delete them.

When I call QP2TERM it comes up but no matter what I type it ends.

I hyst want to get rid of the folder. I don't care what's in it.

Hi Albert,

If QShell is installed:

STRQSH
rm -rf /path/to/myfolder

If PASE is installed:

CALL QP2TERM
rm -rf /path/to/myfolder

If neither of these is installed, try the EDTF command:

EDTF '/path/to'
Put option 9 next to 'myfolder'.
