How do I recursively remove files from directories?

[Vovin]

Hi,

does anyone have a small elegant piece of code (in C) that recursively remove files from directories. Thanks.

Alas, (recursive) directory scanning (to remove files or what else) is OS-dependent operation. No such functions in C Standard Library...

Thanks ArkM, I managed to cobble something together that did the job.

Be warned. Deletion of files DURING your directory scan CAN make the directory scan skip a file. You may find some files being left behind.
