8.11.9.255 Unlink Intrinsic (subroutine)

     CALL Unlink(File, Status)

File: CHARACTER; scalar; INTENT(IN).

Status: INTEGER(KIND=1); OPTIONAL; scalar; INTENT(OUT).

Intrinsic groups: unix.

Description:

Unlink the file File. A null character (`CHAR(0)') marks the end of the name in File—otherwise, trailing blanks in File are ignored. If the Status argument is supplied, it contains 0 on success or a nonzero error code upon return. See unlink(2).

Some non-GNU implementations of Fortran provide this intrinsic as only a function, not as a subroutine, or do not support the (optional) Status argument.
