RMDIR (I)                    3/15/72                    RMDIR (I)





NAME            rmdir  --  remove directory



SYNOPSIS        rmdir dir  ...
                         1


DESCRIPTION     rmdir removes (deletes) directories.  The direc-

                tory must be empty (except for the standard en-

                tries "." and "..", which rmdir itself removes).

                Write permission is required in the directory in

                which the directory appears.



FILES           none



SEE ALSO        --



DIAGNOSTICS     "dir?"  is printed if directory dir cannot be

                found, is not a directory, or is not removable.



                "dir -- directory not empty" is printed if dir

                has entries other than "." or "..".
