NAME

       lfc-rm - remove LFC files or directories in the name server

SYNOPSIS

       lfc-rm [-f] [-i] filename...

       lfc-rm [-f] [-i] -r dirname...

DESCRIPTION

       lfc-rm  removes LFC files or directories in the name server.  For directories either -r or -R must be present.  For regular files, it calls
       lfc_unlink while for directories, it calls lfc_rmdir.

       This requires write permission in the parent directory and the file itself.  If write permission on an entry is denied, the standard  input
       is a terminal and the -f option is not given, the prompt "override write protection" appears and if the response is not y, the entry is not
       deleted.  Entries directly under a protected directory are never deleted.

       path   specifies the LFC pathname.  If path does not start with /, it is prefixed by the content of the LFC_HOME environment variable.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -f     Do not give an error message if the file/directory does not exist.

       -i     Request acknowledge before removing each individual entry.

       -R     Recursive mode (equivalent to -r).

       -r     Recursive mode.

EXIT STATUS

       This program returns 0 if the operation was successful or >0 if the operation failed.
