Delete

Synopsis
delete(files, refreshgui, confirm)

Description
Delete one or more files. The argument is a list of files to be deleted. Wildcards may be used (except in the directory path). It returns the number of files deleted (or a fail in case of errors). Note that confirmation is asked for if the confirm argument is 'yes' (for any file) or 'directory' (for a directory). By default the confirm argument is unset meaning that the default confirmation option (as returned by getconfirm()) is used.
