so, there no method to delete special files that below a directory? such as in the directory [root at chenqiang]# tree . ├── test_10d └── test_20d 0 directories, 2 files [root at chenqiang]# ll total 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4 5月 20 19:14 test_10d -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4 5月 10 19:15 test_20d So, I want to delete file test_20d, keep test_10d, how to do that? thx.
