Hi,
You can also use the command file.remove. The advantage of using this
command in stead of the system call that Agustin suggested is that the
code will work on all OS'es. If you use a call like system("rm
/foo/bar") this works on Linux but not on Windows.
In addition, shapefiles are ofcourse a collection of files. You can use
file.remove in combination with list.files to delete all the files that
form a shapefile. If the base name of the shapefile is foo_bar:
file.remove(list.files(pattern="foo_bar"))
cheers
