3-52 ROM-DOS 6.22 User Manual 7/9/98
E R A S E
Internal
Purpose
Deletes a specified file or set of files.
Syntax
ERASE [d:][path]filename [/P]
Remarks
DEL and ERASE are functionally identical.
When no drive is specified, the default drive is assumed. When no
path is specified, the default path is assumed.
The wildcards ? and * can be used in the filespec. This should be
done with caution to avoid deleting multiple files unintentionally.
When the filespec *.* is used to delete all files in the specified
subdirectory, a verification message is displayed:
Are you sure (Y/N) ?
Type Y only if you want all files in the specified sub directory to be
erased (deleted).
CAUTION
There is no ROM-DOS command to undelete a file. Although
utilities exist which can attempt an undelete certain factors
can cause the erased file to be partially or totally lost. The
ERASE command should be treated as a permanent erase.
ERASE deletes files within a subdirectory, not the subdirectory itself.
For subdirectory removal, see the RMDIR command.
