Hi all,
I'd like to delete not empty directories using emacs (these directory 
are under CVS so emacs should update CVS data). When I select the 
directories to delete in the Dired buffer and press 'D' it fails 
beacause the directories aren't empty. There is a way in the Dired 
buffer to delete not empty dir?

Thanks.

Giannandrea
