ubrm: How to clean up UNIBASE Table Files

ubrm offers a straightforward command-line utility for the removal of UNIBASE tables from the system. Unlike operations that might alter the underlying data dictionary, ubrm focuses solely on deleting the physical table file. This means that while the table’s data is lost, its definition within the UNIBASE system remains intact, allowing for the table to be recreated and reused if necessary. Leveraging the standard Unix “rm” command, ubrm provides a familiar and direct method for managing and removing UNIBASE table files within the operating system’s file structure.
