Yes they are.

The problem is I can use rm test.xml but for removing a whole directory rm needs a parameter.
rm -r *.xml
On the Unix prompt tis runs fine.
But as from the ftp prompt where i am in at that moment, it doesn't recognize the command anymore.

SPLASHY(1)						 Splashy POSIX boot splash system						SPLASHY(1)

NAME

       Splashy - a user-mode, POSIX and LSB compliant, boot splashing system for UNIX.

SYNOPSIS

       splashy { boot | shutdown | test | preview }

       splashy_chvt { TTY_NUMBER }

DESCRIPTION

       Splashy displays an image and a progress bar at boot time. When called as splashy_chvt, it allows the same functionality as the UNIX
       command chvt.

OPTIONS

       boot    Does boot sequence. See EXAMPLES.

       shutdown
	       Does shutdown sequence. See EXAMPLES.

       test, preview
	       Use to test splashy without having to reboot the system. this shows a progressbar continuously moving as well as the current image
	       for the currently selected theme.  See EXAMPLES.

EXAMPLES

       "/sbin/splashy test"

       Used to test splashy. Useful for testing new themes.

       "/sbin/splashy boot"

       Used when booting your system. This is run automatically by a initrc script during boot.

       "/sbin/splashy shutdown"

       Similar in spirit to boot, but run during shutdown. This is run automatically by a initrc script during shutdown.

FILES

       /etc/splashy/config.xml
	       Main configuration. defines how splashy should be setup.

       /etc/splashy/themes/default/config.xml
	       Default theme. defines how the images displayed by splashy should be setup, their location and other theme-related variables.

NOTES

       To use splashy as chvt, make a symbolic link from splashy's location to a new path. i.e.: cd /sbin; ln -s splashy splashy_chvt
