"rm" is Unix utility, it's somewhat like "delete" in DOS.
You may download rm from ftp at V home (see directory /dosutils) or
somewhere else. Or you may edit makefiles.
But it worked fine for me when I followed Installation instruction,
see point 5 :
"cd to each of these directories and run `make' for each of the following.
(The top level Makefile in C:/v has X specific stuff and doesn't work. Also,
since make is case sensitive, you might have to use `make -f makefile'.) "
and later...

Good luck,

Nikolai
