\begin{funcdesc}{rmtree}{path\optional{, ignore_errors\optional{, onerror}}}
Delete an entire directory tree.\index{directory!deleting}
If \var{ignore_errors} is true,
errors resulting from failed removals will be ignored; if false or
omitted, such errors are handled by calling a handler specified by
\var{onerror} or, if that is omitted, they raise an exception.
\index{directory!deleting}
Delete an entire directory tree (\var{path} must point to a directory).
If \var{ignore_errors} is true, errors resulting from failed removals
will be ignored; if false or omitted, such errors are handled by
calling a handler specified by \var{onerror} or, if that is omitted,
they raise an exception.
If \var{onerror} is provided, it must be a callable that accepts
three parameters: \var{function}, \var{path}, and \var{excinfo}.
