NAME
       delp - The Free Pascal file deletion tool.


SYNOPSIS
       delp [options] directory


DESCRIPTION
       delp deletes files in the specified directory that are left over from a
       Free Pascal compilation process. It knows what files can be produced by
       the compile steps and deletes any such files it finds. At the end it
       gives a summary of the number of files that were deleted, together with
       the amount of bytes freed by this process.


USAGE
       delp takes the following options at this time:

       -e     Delete all executable files as well. This option has no effect
              on Linux.

       -h     Displays a short help message.

       -q     Be more quiet. Normally, delp gives a count of the number of
              files deleted.  If this option is given, no messages are
              displayed.
