OpenDOS comes with "xdel", which will do what deltree does
and offers more flexibility too. For example, you can use
it to recursively delete the contents of a directory tree,
while leaving the subdirectories in place. Another nice touch is
that the flags are the same as those for their version of
"xcopy".
