Exactly, since the directory doesn't match the filter, it won't get
deleted.

Subject: RE: newbie <delete> not removing my empty directory?

well, I would have to specify which directories are going to be EMPTY
when I'm done with the
delete?  How would I know that?

No, there are no class files left in the directory when the operation is
done.  The directory is
empty, but doesn't get removed.

Thanks, Eric
