[comp.binaries.ibm.pc] 'rm'

asjoshi@phoenix.Princeton.EDU (Amit S. Joshi) (12/19/87)

Hello,

This is a followup to the posting for 'rm' a Unix(tm) lookalike replacement
for the PC 'del' command. There is a subtle but harmless bug in the program
posted: If you try to delete a single nonexistent file the program complains
and then tries to delete the file as if it were a protected file. The solution
1) don't give such commands   OR
2) having given such a command reply you don't want to delete the file OR
3) if it is bothering you a lot send me a note and I'll send you a fixed 
   version (I have it but not seeing too many complaints I am not posting it).
