DEL -- Delete one or more files.

Synopsis

The number of files deleted is reported upon completion.

The DEL command is available only to sysops, in PZTDOS mode.

Portability

Unlike XR16/32, in XRPi this command does not support "drive letters", and pathnames (but not commands) are case-sensitive.

Limitations

Like "real" DOS, this can not delete names which include spaces.
