.TH DNDEL 1 "October 2 1998" "DECnet utilities"
.SH NAME
dndel \- Delete a file on a VMS system
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B dndel
[options] file-name
.br
Options:
.br
[\-ivVh]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.B dndel
deletes files held on VMS systems. The filename parameter may specify a single
file or a wildcard (remember to use VMS wildcards).
If you specify
.B \-i
or
.B \-v
then dndel will open two connections to the VMS machine (much as VMS itself
does). Otherwise it will attempt to use a single connection. One side-effect
of this is that the deletion process will fail at the first file that cannot
be deleted.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.I "\-i"
Interactive. Prompt before deleting a file.
.TP
.I "\-v"
Verbose. Print the names of files that have been deleted
.TP
.I "\-T connect timeout"
Specifies the maximum amount of time the command will wait to establish a connection
with the remote node. a 0 here will cause it to wait forever. The default is 60 seconds
.TP
.I \-h \-?
Displays help for using the command.
.TP
.I \-V
Show the version of the tools package that dndel comes from.
.SH EXAMPLES
dndel \-i 'myvax::oldfile;*'
.br
dndel 'tramp"christine pjc123"::interactive'
