<div>All folders have a .PA extension so they are easily
identified.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You can see that some are empty and some have files (print
jobs) in them. I want to delete all files from WITHIN these
folders and nothing else.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Can someone help with a single command that will do this?</div>
