Message-Id: <fV45K0OBJxbE-pn2-50FziIPSrINh@paddington.bear.den>
I have a perl script that cleans up temporary directories at boot. If
a file in one of those directories is read only I get a "permission
denied" message from unlink. Note this is not a *nix or Windows
system. If OTOH I cd to said directory and issue "rm -f *" they go
without a murmur.
Can unlink be made to behave like "rm -f" or do I have to use the
command in backticks?
TIA
