The command "del ${file_pattern} /p" is used to delete files based on a specified file pattern and prompts for confirmation before deleting each file.
Here is a breakdown of the different parts of the command:
- "del": This is the command used in Windows command prompt or PowerShell to delete files.
- "${file_pattern}": It is a placeholder for the file pattern or wildcard that specifies which files should be deleted. For example, you can use "*.txt" to delete all text files in a directory.
- "/p": This is an optional argument that stands for "prompt." When used with the "del" command, it prompts for confirmation before deleting each file. This is useful to avoid accidental deletion of important files.
Overall, the command will search for files matching the specified file pattern and ask for confirmation before deleting each file.
