SYNOPSIS

       rmdir [-ps] dirname ...

DESCRIPTION

       Rmdir  removes  the  entries  for  the named directories, which must be
       empty.

       It accepts the following options:

       -p     Remove the named directory and all its named parent directories.
              This  is  only successful if each parent directory contains only
              the   specied   subdirectories.    For    /usr/5bin/mkdir    and
              /usr/5bin/s42/mkdir, a message is printed if the whole hierarchy
              was successfully removed.

       -s     Suppress error messages if -p is in effect.
