line. You've been told this before; why do you refuse to listen?
The comp.lang.c FAQ is at <http://www.c-faq.com/>. You have just
asked question 19.16. You should have checked the FAQ before posting.

C does not have the concept of directories in any of its operations.
Anything you want to do to manipulate directories will have to be
done through a system-specific call. Check in a newsgroup that
deals with whatever operating system you are using.

Please do not top-post. The concept of top-posting, and the reasons
for not doing it, are explained in the following links:

You are being rude. If you continue to top-post, I will never answer
another of your questions.

Use 'remove' or 'unlink'. The former is a libray function while latter
is system call under unix. Both does the same.

for off-topic reasons as sometimes calling unlink and sometimes another
function. remove is part of the Standard C library, unlink may or may
not be a system call but certainly is not part of the standard library.

And hence /not portable/. If you're going to tell people unportable
things, have the decency to tell them they're unportable.

I'm not convinced.
