NAME
     ttrmdir - remove empty directories	and inform  the	 ToolTalk
     service

SYNOPSIS
     ttrmdir [-L] directory ...

     ttrmdir -h	| -v

DESCRIPTION
     The ttrmdir utility invokes rmdir(1) to remove empty direc-
     tories and	informs	ToolTalk about its actions so that the
     ToolTalk objects associated with the deleted directories can
     also be deleted.

     The ttrmdir utility removes the ToolTalk objects before it
     removes the directories and does not check	whether	a direc-
     tory is empty or whether the directory-removing operation
     will succeed before performing the	object-removing	opera-
     tion.

OPTIONS
     The following options are available:

	-h    Write a help message for invoking	ttrmdir	and then
	      exit.

	-L    Remove the ToolTalk objects of the directories, but
	      do not invoke rmdir(1) to	remove the actual direc-
	      tories.

	-v    Write the	version	number of ttrmdir and then exit.

     The -p option to cp(1) is not supported.

OPERANDS
     The following operand is supported:

	directory
	      A	pathname of an empty directory to be removed.

STDIN
     Not used.

INPUT FILES
     The input files specified as operands can be of any file
     type.

ttrmdir(1)		 USER COMMANDS		       ttrmdir(1)

	LANG	       Provide a default value for the interna-
		       tionalization variables that are	unset or
		       null.  If LANG is unset or null,	the
		       corresponding value from	the
		       implementation-specific default locale
		       will be used.  If any of	the internation-
		       alization variables contains an invalid
		       setting,	the utility behaves as if none of
		       the variables had been defined.

	LC_ALL	       If set to a non-empty string value, over-
		       ride the	values of all the other	interna-
		       tionalization variables.

	LC_MESSAGES    Determine the locale that is used to
		       affect the format and contents of diagnos-
		       tic messages written to standard	error and
		       informative messages written to standard
		       output.

	NLSPATH	       Determine the location of message catalo-
		       gues for	the processing of LC_MESSAGES.
