I have been having trouble deleting Autoconf using
the bash rm -rf @manifest\acnf259b.mft  method...

No has explained @manifest  to me yet, and trying 
to google hasn't been successful
(google is not what is used to be for some reason).

Anyways, I never get any success _or_ failure message
by executing 

bash2.05b>  rm -rf @manifest\acnf259b.mft 

statement, and that concerns me.

Of course, the principal of what the acnf259b.mft  file
tries to achieve is clear enough, and anyone should be
able to construct a simple batch file to acheive a
delete-package utility... 

Another fascinating observation, with the unzip32.exe
installation is that I have a considerable number of
packages, most of them as recent as possible, installed,
and that installation is about 111mb...
my original installation, using the same packages but
from the FTP download site, and not necessarily as
updated, is considerably larger.

Again, please join us on Freenode IRC server for the
#DJGPP channel.  This is a 24-hour channel and should
always be available.  Hopefully, as word gets around some
of you might be willing to hang around as long as you like.

IRC is a real-time chat environment. Sometimes a little patience
is also needed, but I believe this can be an important source
of assistance.  I would be interested in learning about other
IRC attempts in the past.
