I wonder if you were looking at an old System Manual. I just downloaded the .pdf file from /VDL and it's fully documented.

I can't seem to find the API documentation though. I ahve looked in the Kernal System Manual, and Kernal Technical manual. I tried looking in the code: DEL(%ZX1,%ZX2) ;ef,SR. Del fl(s) ;S Y=$$DEL^ZISH("/dir/",namevalue) ;Rtn 0=Err, 1=Ok N %ZISH,%ZISHLGR,%ZXIT,%ZX,X N $ETRAP,$ESTACK S $ETRAP="D DELERR^%ZISH" S %ZX1=$$DEFDIR($G(%ZX1)) ;Get fls to act on ;No '*' allowed S %ZISH="" F S %ZISH=$O(@%ZX2@(%ZISH)) Q:'%ZISH I %ZISH["*" S %ZXIT=1 Q Q:$D(%ZXIT) 0 S %ZISH="",%ZXIT=0 F S %ZISH=$O(@%ZX2@(%ZISH)) Q:%ZISH="" S %ZX=$ZPARSE(%ZISH,,%ZX1) D Q:%ZXIT . S X=$ZSEARCH("") ;Flush $ZSEARCH context . S %ZX=$ZSEARCH(%ZX) . I %ZX]"" O %ZX:readonly:0 S:'$T %ZXIT=1 Q:%ZXIT C %ZX:DELETE Q '%ZXIT Can anyone tell me from this what my parameters are supposed to be? Or better yet, tell me where the documentation is? Thanks Kevin ----------------- If you're doing file IO in M and your target system will have the Kernel installed, it's best if you use the Kernel's host file APIs. CLOSE^%ZISH Close host file opened by OPEN^%ZISH. $$DEL^%ZISH Delete host file. $$FTG^%ZISH Copy lines from a host file into a global. $$GATF^%ZISH Append records from a global to a host file. $GTF^%ZISH Copy records from a global into a host file. $$LIST^%ZISH Retrieve a list of files in a directory. $$MV^%ZISH Rename host file. OPEN^%ZISH Open host file (bypass device handler). $$PWD^%ZISH Retrieve name of current directory. $$STATUS^%ZISH Return end-of-file status. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
