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

Wow! I sort of remembered that, from another post. But did not remember option 9. Wonderful!

And infuriating. This is something, along with option 6, that belongs out in WRKLNK, not buried in some arcane, strange location like this. BTW, opt 5 on a directory gets you to the same place, with no limit of function, i.e., you can "edit" a directory from the "display" command. Not the way the 400 usually works, is it?

Besides, these commands are johnny-come-latelies in the IFS world.

Sheesh!

If you want a good time, run EDTF '/' and take option 6 on QIBM. The reason you can have a good time is, your display will be occupied for some time. ;-) Go take a nap, read a book, whatever!

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.
