RE: Another quick PASE question

You asked about a pass command, but just wanted to remind everyone that the rmdir command can delete subtrees also.

Thanks. That did it. I figured it was *something* like that, but all I could find on short notice was how to do it in bash.


Oh, and by the way, in the end, it turned out that a "rm -$ *" takes
almost exactly the same amount of time as my own "DELTREE" utility. I'm
surprised that what I wrote, long enough ago that I'd have to IPL a box
that's only up on an as-needed basis in order to even remember how it
worked, is almost exactly as fast as something that came with the OS.
