Not that this has any bearing on the matter: aleem@pneumon:aleem-> cxx -V DIGITAL C++ V6.1-029 on DIGITAL UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 1091) aleem@pneumon:aleem-> automake --version automake (GNU automake) 1.5 aleem@pneumon:aleem-> autoconf --version Autoconf version 2.13 > Does rm on your box allow "rm fil1 fil2 -r dir1 dir2"? $ mkdir tmp; cd tmp $ mkdir dir1 dir2 $ echo "crap" > file1 $ cp file1 file2; cp file1 dir1/.; cp file1 dir2/. $ rm file1 file2 -r dir1 dir2 rm: -r: No such file or directory rm: dir1 directory rm: dir2 directory So, no.
