GNU find has a `-delete` action. It implies `-depth` and as such, can do the clean-up in one go.	[reply]

I'm pretty sure the command that does the file cleanup is a find command somewhere. I think that there should have been a way to write it such that it cleaned out the directories too. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 (NASB)	[reply]
