NAME

     rmdir  -  remove directory



SYNOPSIS

     rmdir dir ...



DESCRIPTION

     Rmdir removes (deletes) directories.  The directory must  be

     empty  (except  for the standard entries `.' and `..', which

     rmdir itself removes).  Write permission is required in  the

     directory in which the directory appears.



BUGS

     Needs  a  -r  flag.   Actually,  write  permission  in   the

     directory's parent is not required.
