DELETE.EXE is a Win32 console application that deletes files. Win32 Console application means that it runs in a Windows 98, ME, 2000, or XP command prompt. It is an improvment over the DEL or ERASE internal command that comes with the operating system. Delete's features include: * allows multiple file specifications on the command line; * optionally deletes Hidden, System, or Read Only files; * optionally prompts for permission to delete any file; * optionally deletes files in directories below the current one; * optionally removes empty directories below the current one; * optionally overwrites files before deleting them; and * optionally deletes only files dated before, after, or between dates. * optionally deletes only zero length files. * optionally deletes only files that are not present in a reference directory (useful for mirroring a directory structure when used with Xcopy). DEL16.exe is the old DOS version of this program that runs under pure DOS, and can't see long file names.
