[GRASSLIST:2521] Re:directory cleaning help

Kevin,
Use g.remove rast=[filename]
it'll get rid off all the  files related to that raster (under cell,
cellhd, cats, hist, colr).

Alternatively, if you want to get rid of everything in a whole directory
and
all it's subdirectories with that name (and I mean everything, so be
careful) then use the Unix command
find [directory path] -name [filename] -exec rm -r {} \;

to be safe you can run this first
find [directory path] -name [filename] -print
and if everything listed is slated for destruction then run the previous
command.
Cheers,
Erin

just a quick question, this might be more related to Linux question...but
is there a way to clean raster files without going to each individual
directory (ie cell, fcell, etc...)??  It is a pain to have to go to each
directory and rm the files...
