    Hi, I'm trying to delete

    /home/adam/.enlightenment/themes/FossilsOfTheMachines

    but I can't get 'rmdir' to work on a full directory. Neither

    rmdir -r [filename]
    rmdir s [filename] /or/
    rmdir --ignore-non-empty-directory [filename]

    ... work.

    What am I missing here ?
