Deleting Input Files

What's the command line for deleting input files in Lame 3.90.3 ?

I can't seem to find this listed anywhere.

I've been using Razorlame which has an option to delete the source files, but I now want to use Speek's all2lame for it's tagging capabilities.

Thanks.
Raf.

I'm afraid that there isn't one.

Not good news.

I wonder why, you'd think it was obvious and rather neccessary.

Thanks.

You can always create a batch file that only deletes .wav audio files in a specific directory, of course you'd only want to run it after encoding is finished.

Example (no prompting):
DEL C:\WAVs\*.wav

Example (prompts before deleting each file):
DEL /P C:\WAVs\*.wav

Something else of interest is the file that All2Lame makes, I think it's Go.bat can be opened and saved whilst encoding is taking place by inputting a command at the end, although if timed incorrectly Windows may see the file as locked.
