Remove jobs spooled by the at command.
The atrm command removes jobs that were created with the at command, but have not executed. If one or more job numbers is specified, the atrm command attempts to remove only those jobs.
If one or more user names is specified, all jobs belonging to those users are removed. This form of invoking the atrm command is useful only if you have root user authority.
