ARP(REL1)		     ARP User's	Manual		     ARP(REL1)



     NAME
	  Delete - Delete up to	ten files or directories.

     SYNOPSIS
	  Delete [up to	10 names] ALL QUIET ASK

     DESCRIPTION
	  Delete deletes the names you specify,	if there is a problem
	  with the deletion delete will	inform you.  If	you wish to
	  delete a directory that contains other files,	you must use
	  the ALL switch.  As with most	ARP commands that deal with
	  Files, you can specify a wildcard pattern in any or all of
	  the positions.

	  ARP also allows you to interactively delete the files	by
	  specifying the ASK switch.  If you use ASK, delete will
	  display the files one	by one,	with a question	mark.  If you
	  type 'Y' followed by return, the file	will be	deleted, and
	  the next one will be displayed.  Any other character will
	  not cause the	file to	be deleted.

	  If you use wildcards,	Delete will display the	names of the
	  files	as they	are deleted.  You can prevent this by using
	  the QUIET switch.

     EXAMPLE
	  Delete * or Delete #?		Delete all files in the
	  current directory

	  Delete * ASK or Delete * A	Ask about deleteing each file
	  in the current directory.
