find *.txt -exec rm -f {} \;

This is a QSH command that will do the current directory I believe. Play
with it some more and you can probably get it to do all you want. See the
systeminetwork link below for a discussion of why this might not work for
you.

It looks like those IFSTOOLS are pretty good. There is exactly what you need
in the DEL command.

TAATOOLS has a couple of commands that would allow you to build it yourself.

Subject: Deleting .tmp files in the IFS

Can anyone think of a simple way to find and delete all the files in the IFS
with a certain suffix? I.E. all the *.xls files, or the *.dat files.

Thanks!

Dennis
