Deletes a file.
Allows you to delete any file you designate, where filename
designates the name of the file.

Allows you to list the contents of the CompactFlash Disk in slot 0.
The /all argument lists all files on all file systems in your system.
Formats a file system.
Allows you to format a linear Flash memory card (flash:), onboard
Flash memory (bootflash:), or a new CompactFlash Disk (disk0:).
This command also allows you to reformat a linear Flash memory
card or CompactFlash Disk that was formatted on another type of
system.
This command destroys all data currently in Flash memory;
Note
therefore, we strongly recommend that you use the format
command with caution to prevent irretrievable loss of data.

(current) file system path and filename, and the second set of
arguments defines the destination file system path and filename.

CompactFlash Disk, where directory-name is the name of the
