NT4 CMD: Delete directories autmatically

Comment:
Does anybody know how to delete a directory (with subdirs and files) from NT4's command prompt, without any user interaction? "rd
/s" works like old "deltree", but you still have to supply a "yes" in order to continue. This is not desirable, since I intend to use this feature in batch files.
Perhaps one can redirect some "input" to the command, for instance something like this: rd TEMP /s <<'y' (I've tried a few of these with no success so far.)
Please reply to my email address as well as to the forum! Thanks!
