Delete follows symbolic links to directories





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-08-25 13:50 -------
Yes, but I would go a step further. It seems to me that the safest option 
should be the default, so in a unix/linux environment where symlinks are 
supported, <delete dir="xxx"> should act exactly like "rm -rf xxx" which would 
reliably remove the directory including any symlinks, but does not delete 
anything pointed to by the symlink. 

If for some reason, someone DOES NOT want to delete symlinks if the exist or 
they want to follow symlinks and delete files, they should have to choose that 
option. It should not be the default.

Thanks!
