Hey,
yea PHP is very powerful for a scripting language. Php can delete
folders using rmdir(), create directories using mkdir(), and can delete
a file using unlink(), copy a file/dir using copy(). As suggested you
might want to check out the manual at php.net
<a rel="nofollow" style='text-decoration: none;' href="http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php" target="_blank">http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.filesystem.php</a> and see for yuorself.
but just to tell you how powerful this language is, people have done
windows applications using its GUI based GTK, and have created
Artificial intelligence apps with it.
