file delete is a built-in Tcl command - do a `man n file` to see it.
And yeah, it definitely should work.

Has anybody seen anything like this before?
Is the "file delete" an operation provided by Tcl?
It's odd that it would go through and try to delete everything, but not finish the job.
I'm tempted to change the "file delete -force" into a system "rm - fr ..." call.
"file delete -force" is broken in some versions of TCL on MacOSX. See <http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/Tcl-bugs/2838168> and <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107884>. -- Mike Alexander mta@umich.edu Ann Arbor, MI PGP key ID: BEA343A6
