This is a replacement for the AmigaOS-delete command.  

Swipe is able to detect and remove assignments from directories that could
not be deleted otherwise (without removing the assign, which is tedious
work). It also includes a feature to create a batchfile that allows the
removal of "objects in use" later (e.g.  to be called in your
startup-sequence).

It is a follow up to my program ClearRAM and has an option to clear the
RAM-disk of all files and directories while leaving the system-directories
intact.  Useful for all who use their RAM-Disk quite often and are bored to
delete files by hand.

This version fixes a bug in v1.179 which added some new options; from the
history file:


V1.180 (08.12.1998) -- Seventh Aminet release

	· MEMORIZE was always on. Fixed. Thanks Fredrik.


V1.179 (04.12.1998) -- Sixth Aminet release

	· Added option FLUSH which removes unused libraries and
	  fonts from the system
	· Combined options PRESERVE and PRESERVEDIR into one
	  new option PRESERVE which allows the preservation of
	  multiple files
	· Added new options MEMORIZE,MEMOFILE and MEMOSTRING
	  which allow creating a batch-file to remove 'objects
	  in use' after reboot


V1.128 (11.10.1998) -- Fifth Aminet relese

	· added some 'thank-you's to the documentation
	· new option BEEP added
	· new option PRESERVEDIR works like pre-v1.101 PRESERVE,
	  i.e. leaves a directory untouched while contents may be
	  removed
	· new option MATCHPATTERN matches files against a pattern,
	  useful for removing info files from a tree of directories
	· new option LEAVETREEINTACT exempts directories from
	  deletion
