# prcs-clean(1)

clean up a directory tree containing a PRCS-controlled project

## NAME

prcs-clean - clean up a directory tree containing a PRCS-controlled project

## SYNOPSIS

**prcs-clean** *project*

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **prcs-clean**, command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**prcs-clean** is a program that cleans up a directory tree containing a PRCS-controlled project by removing all files that are not part of the project.  The mandatory argument is the name of the project from which all the files will be deleted.  Be careful: only use **prcs-clean** after having done a checkin (otherwise you will lose your project!).
