Message-ID: <1990Nov16.134421.23733@magnus.ircc.ohio-state.edu> Date: 16 Nov 90 13:44:21 GMT Sender: news@magnus.ircc.ohio-state.edu Organization: The Ohio State University (IRCC) Lines: 11 Originator: fseipel@hpuxa.ircc.ohio-state.edu Nntp-Posting-Host: hpuxa.ircc.ohio-state.edu I have downloaded many files from the net to my HP48 since I purchased my Mac cable. Often I don't want to keep these programs, since I only have 32K in my HP. However, I am unable to delete an entire directory when I wish to eliminate these programs. This is very annoying, as many of these programs contain dozens of objects which must be individually deleted. Am I missing something? What command is used to do this, and, if there isn't one, it would be nice if somebody could write a program to do it (one to take an object, the name of a directory, from the stack, and delete any objects (incl. other directories) under it. P.S. Let's have that ml tetris NOW!
