Name
       mdel - delete an MSDOS file



Note of warning
       This  manpage  has  been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation, and may not be entirely accurate or
       complete.  See the end of this man page for details.

Description
       The mdel command is used to delete an MS-DOS file. Its syntax is:

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


       Mdel deletes files on an MS-DOS file system.

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

Viewing the texi doc
       This manpage has been automatically generated from mtools's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only approxi-
       mative,  and  some  items,  such as crossreferences, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process.  Indeed,
       these items have no appropriate representation in the manpage format.  Moreover, not all information has been  translated
       into  the  manpage version.  Thus I strongly advise you to use the original texinfo doc.  See the end of this manpage for
       instructions how to view the texinfo doc.

       *      To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:

                     ./configure; make dvi; dvips mtools.dvi



       *      To generate a html copy,  run:

                     ./configure; make html

       A premade html can be found at `http://www.gnu.org/software/mtools/manual/mtools.html'

       *      To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:

                     ./configure; make info



       The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as html.  Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to
       read due to the quoting conventions used in info.
