Hi!

After reading and watch the beginners tutorial from www.franz.com
i what to make som program with lisp.

I have today a catalog where i have a batchscript erasing every match
for *.temp
I know batchscript with 1 line, is probly the best, but i like to
write a LISP version.

The problem is that no documentation i have found tell mig how to
erase files.

I have found som about (directory) and i have seen that it can giv men
a catalog with
files... that a maby can use a erase on ?.

Does somone point me in corrent direction, where to found about
this....
(i use CLISP/Windows and SBCL/Macintosh OS/X  if this matter...)

You seem to be looking for 'delete-file'.

Have a look at the HyperSpec for the gory details.

You want to delete a file?
