what would the correct command be on windows?

  Instead of "C:\ del .mp3", it should be "del C:\ .mp3". Edit: lol, I didn't know that we could format text with asterisks on HN. There should be an asterisk before each ".mp3", but as you can see, if I put them in it just italicizes the text in between them.

    Could've also been "C:\>del *.mp3" if they were trying to incorporate the prompt. Either way, who keeps mp3s on the root drive anyways?

    Two leading spaces is verbatim (code/literal) text: C:\ del *.mp3 Should be: del C:\ *.mp3 https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc

      Cheers to you and sp332 below, it's appreciated. There's a certain irony in me chuckling over the incorrect code in the track title and then being unable to format my own text minutes later, haha.
