    MDEL(1)             UNIX Programmer's Manual              MDEL(1)

    NAME
         mdel - delete an MSDOS file

    SYNOPSIS
         mdel [ -v ] msdosfile [ msdosfiles...  ]

    DESCRIPTION
         Mdel deletes a file on an MSDOS filesystem.

         Mdel will allow the following command line option:

         v    Verbose mode.  Echo the filenames as they are pro-
              cessed.

         Mdel will ask for verification prior to removing a read-only
         file.

         MSDOS subdirectory names are supported with either the '/'
         or '\' separator.  The use of the '\' separator or wildcards
         will require the names to be enclosed in quotes to protect
         them from the shell.

         The mcd command may be used to establish the device and the
         current working directory (relative to MSDOS), otherwise the
         default is A:/.

    SEE ALSO
         mcd(1)

    BUGS
         Allows multiple arguments, which does not follow the MSDOS
         convention.
