<DT><B>Description</B><DD><P><CODE>unlink</CODE> deletes the file with the given name. On success,
zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned and <CODE>errno</CODE> is set to an error
code describing the reason for the failure.</P>

<UL>
<LI>The use of this function is discouraged. Please use <CODE>
<A HREF="funcref-170.html#remove">remove</A></CODE> instead, which is a native ANSI C function and does the same.</LI>
<LI>This function is not available on all cc65 targets (depends on the
availability of file I/O).</LI>
<LI>The function is only available as fastcall function, so it may only
be used in presence of a prototype.</LI>
<LI>Instead of <CODE>unlink</CODE>, <CODE>
<A HREF="funcref-170.html#remove">remove</A></CODE> should be
used, which has the same semantics, but is more portable, because it conforms
to the ISO C standard.</LI>
