.Sh SYNOPSIS

.Ar directory ...
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The rmdir utility removes the directory entry specified by
each
.Ar directory
argument, provided it is empty.
.Pp
Arguments are processed in the order given.
In order to remove both a parent directory and a subdirectory
of that parent, the subdirectory
must be specified first so the parent directory
is empty when
.Nm rmdir
tries to remove it.
.\" .Pp
.\" The following option is available:
.\" .Bl -tag -width Ds
.\" .It Fl p
.\" Each
.\" .Ar directory
.\" argument is treated as a pathname of which all
.\" components will be removed, if they are empty,
.\" starting with the last most component.
.\" (See
.\" .Xr rm 1
.\" for fully non-discriminant recursive removal).
.\" .El
.Pp
