Deleting a directory

[Zach Beane]

I'm looking for a way to delete empty directories on each implementation
of Common Lisp that Quicklisp supports.

I know it's SB-POSIX:RMDIR in SBCL. But I'd also like to know for ABCL,
Allegro CL, Clozure CL, CLISP, CMUCL, ECL, LispWorks, and Scieneer. If you
know, would you please share?

Thanks,
Zach

How about borrowing CL-FAD:DELETE-DIRECTORY-AND-FILES?

Ah, thanks. I didn't know about that, I'll check it out.

cl-fad uses #+openmcl (ccl:delete-directory ...), but my ClozureCL
doesn't have a symbol by that name. Anyone know what I should use for
ClozureCL?

Thanks,

Looked up the following ones (CCL svn head):

ccl::recursive-delete-directory
ccl::%rmdir

They are both internal, and I don't know whether any of them is
`official'. It seems, though, that there is no other way to delete a
directory except one of those functions.
