function delete()

Vim Reference

:help delete()

Short Description

Delete given file or directory.

Example

There is not much to say about this function. It simply deletes a file, or an empty directory, or the whole directory and it's content recursively. Here are the example calls for all three use cases.

call delete('./some/file.txt')
call delete('./empty/dir', 'd')
call delete('./filled/dir', 'rf')
