Description

   If you specify a directory in the filename and it is a search
   list that contains an error, VSI C for OpenVMS Systems
   interprets it as a file error.

                                  NOTE

      The DECC$ALLOW_REMOVE_OPEN_FILES feature logical controls
      the behavior of the remove function on open files.
      Ordinarily, the operation fails. However, POSIX conformance
      dictates that the operation succeed.

      With DECC$ALLOW_REMOVE_OPEN_FILES enabled, this POSIX
      conformant behavior is achieved.

   When remove is used to delete a symbolic link, the link itself is
   deleted, not the file to which it refers.

   The remove and delete functions are functionally equivalent in
   the C RTL.

   See also delete.
