REMOVE(2) Xinu Programmer's Manual REMOVE(2) NAME remove - remove a file from the file system SYNOPSIS int remove(filename, key) char *filename; int key; DESCRIPTION _R_e_m_o_v_e takes a file name as an argument and destroys the named file (i.e., removes it from the file system). Argu- ment _f_i_l_e_n_a_m_e specifies the name of a file to remove, and the optional argument _k_e_y gives a one-word protection key. _R_e_m_o_v_e uses the namespace to map the given file name to a new name, and invokes CONTROL(2) on the underlying device to destroy the file. It returns SYSERR if the name is illegal or cannot be mapped to an underlying device. It returns whatever CONTROL(2) returns otherwise.
