Hello,
1. Check that the "rm" command is not mapped to "rm -i" or similar alias. if so them the "rm -f" command from system() command will not work.
Thanx

I recently forgot about the unlink function and had been trying to
remove files using the less efficient system call to run "rm -f
/path/to/files".  I found, however, that this didn't work at all.

I've since replaced it with unlink and get the results one can expect to
get so it isn't a matter of trying to find a way to get the former to
work.  I'm just wondering what might have caused it to not work.
