Additional Information
- The Delete A File call removes the disk file specified by the selected pathlist. This function is similar to I$Delete except that it access an access mode byte. If the access mode is execute, the call selects the current execution directory. Otherwise, it selects the current data directory.
- If a complete pathlist is provided (the pathlist begins with a slash (/)), the access mode of the call ignores the access mode.
- Only use this call to delete a file. If you attempt to use I$DeletX to delete a device, the system returns an error.
