~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Magic Delete is an easy-to-use, powerful deleting utility, which uses
AmigaDOS standard wildcards for finding files.
This program pretty much works a C= Delete command...
The Story
~~~~~~~~~
The story started one day when I took home the Hydra BBS Source Archive.
The archive contained LOT's of unnecessary icons which just took a lot
space on my HD.
It took a long time to remove those icons by "hand", but with
Magic Delete it only took a few seconds :-).
