How remove directories with the content in the platform independent way?
Is the API for that?

Thx, A.



It is not clear if rmdir would remove the non-empty dir ...

never min, I found this in that doc :-)

# Delete everything reachable from the directory named in 'top',
# assuming there are no symbolic links.
# CAUTION:  This is dangerous!  For example, if top == '/', it
# could delete all your disk files.
import os
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(top, topdown=False):
    for name in files:
        os.remove(os.path.join(root, name))
    for name in dirs:
        os.rmdir(os.path.join(root, name))
