unlink remove directory entry (unlink = 10.)
sys unlink; name unlink(name)
char *name; points to a null-terminated string. removes
the entry for the file pointed to by from its directory. If
this entry was the last link to the file, the contents of
the file are freed and the file is destroyed. If, however,
the file was open in any process, the actual destruction is
delayed until it is closed, even though the directory entry
has disappeared. rm (I), rmdir (I), link (II) The error bit
(c-bit) is set to indicate that the file does not exist or
that its directory cannot be written. Write permission is
not required on the file itself. It is also illegal to
unlink a directory (except for the super-user). From C, a 1
return indicates an error.
