Well, a 'list' of Tao: does show that it's files can be deleted. Here's what it looks like: (with date created, etc stripped off) LIST TAO: Directory "tao:dh0:wb20/c,dh0:wb20/c2,dh0:wb" on Wednesday 16-Oct-91 dh0:wb20/c,dh0:wb20/c2,dh0:wb/c Dir —-rwed dh0:wb20/libs,dh0:wb20/libs2,dh0:wb/libs Dir —-rwed dh0:wb20/l,dh0:wb20/l2,dh0:wb/l Dir —-rwed dh0:wb20/devs,dh0:wb20/devs2,dh0:wb/devs Dir —-rwed dh0:wb20/system,dh0:wb20/system2,dh0:wb/system Dir —-rwed wb:fonts Dir —-rwed 6 directories – 6 blocks used So, you see, there's really nothing to 'delete'. I'd need to 'rename' the 'dir' in order to get rid of the path contents. If I'm gonna do that, then I may as well just reASSIGN the whole path. See what I mean? Just assigning a name to an empty dir isn't a problem, so I think I'll just live with it. –jp–seattle–
