[solved]deleting directory?

2007-10-07T08:08:47-04:00

Emm.. Post said nothing 'bout shell, and since it was posted in in "Scripting Help", atleast to me it was quite obvious sKy was looking for some info on how to recursively remove a directory from within tcl.

I'm pretty much puzzled why it was moved here aswell...

Of course you could try to run the rm command using exec, but if you ask me, that'd be overkill since we already have the lovely file command in tcl...

It was file delete. Why this is now in shell & bouncer help? Nvm, issues is solved.

It is here because it's nothing to do with eggdrop and all to do with knowing how to use your shell.

Your initial post:

How can I delete a hole folder which is not empty?

I suggest you visit the Linux Command Directory.

you mean to delete the file in the shell, not via a script, right?
rm -rf {foldername}

Read the manpage on file delete and it should be pretty obvious.
