Re: Deleting Files



Francisco,

Thanks, very much for the DOS command of :

ECHO Y|del *.*
I hadn't known that ECHO could be piped like that to simulate having typed at the keyboard. Piping in general has always been somewhat mysterious to me, but this helps de-mystify it. I guess what it does is to provide input read by the command that follows the "|".
