ttrm(1)

CDE

NAME

ttrm - remove files or directories and inform the ToolTalk service

SYNOPSIS

ttrm [-frL] pathname... ttrm -h | -v

OPTIONS

The following options are available: -f Force. Do not report any errors, and pass the -f option to rm(1). -h Write a help message for invoking ttrm and then exit. -L Remove the ToolTalk objects of the files or directories, but do not invoke rm(1) to remove the actual files or directories. -r Recursively remove the ToolTalk objects of any directories named, along with their files (including any subdirectories and their files), and pass the -r option to rm(1). -v Write the version number of ttrm and then exit. The -i or -R options to rm(1) are not supported.

OPERANDS

The following operand is supported: pathname A pathname of a file to be removed.

DESCRIPTION

The ttrm utility invokes rm(1) to remove files and directories and informs ToolTalk about its actions so that the ToolTalk objects associated with the deleted files and directories can also be deleted. The ttrm utility removes the ToolTalk objects before it removes the files and does not check whether the file-removing operation will succeed before performing the object-removing operation.

If any of the internationalization variables contains an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined. LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the other internationalization variables. LC_MESSAGES Determine the locale that is used to affect the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error and informative messages written to standard output. NLSPATH Determine the location of message catalogues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES.

EXIT STATUS

The following exit values are returned: 0 All files and ToolTalk objects were removed successfully. >0 An error occurred or the invoked rm(1) command exited with a non-zero value.
