            ----        ----------
               0        Normal (no attribute set)
               1        Read only
               2        Hidden (concealed files)

              32        Archive attribute
              63        Everything

Returns:    A logical value.
            (.T.) is returned if it was possible to erase at least one of
            the files, otherwise (.F.) is returned.

Usage:      Sometimes it is necessary to clear a diskette or hard disk.
            With this function it is possible to erase groups of files with a
            function, without using the run command.

Notes:      The default attribute is Archive (32).  A drive designator, path
            name and wildcards are allowed.

Warning:    It is possible to erase system files with FILEDELETE().
