1. I usually just Google the command and try and use the docs I find. That's sometimes an issue though due to slight command differences. Good question about the PASE man pages.
2. I don't know if it's the fastest, but I always use the direct approach: rm -rf /foo

Subject: A couple of quick questions (PASE commands, and rapidly deleting an IFS directory tree

Ladies and Gentlemen:

A couple of questions:

First of all, does anybody know where I can find "man pages" or other helptext on the standard PASE commands available in a QP2TERM session?

And second, suppose I have an IFS directory, "/foo"; suppose it contains a large tree of subdirectories. What's the fastest way to get rid of everything in "/foo" (with or without getting rid of "/foo" itself)?
