The rm stands for
``remove.'' You may use this command to
delete files. As with copying, if you are removing a directory, you need to use
the ``-r'' argument.
Example:
[jdpoisso@legio data]$ ls architechture.c image interface.h new_image architechture.h interface.c main.c old_main.c [jdpoisso@legio data]$ rm old_main.c [jdpoisso@legio data]$ rm image/old_main.c [jdpoisso@legio data]$ rm -r new_image [jdpoisso@legio data]$ ls architechture.c architechture.h image interface.c interface.h main.c [jdpoisso@legio data]$
