Thanks for the report. This was fallout from the "new tokenizer" which went into CVS lately to replace the old command parser. It's good that we're shaking these bugs out. Given a list named "L" what ought to happen (as per the User's Guide) is that 1) "delete L" deletes all the series in list L (which then leaves you with an empty list), while 2) "list L delete" deletes the named list itself, without affecting the member series. True enough, that was not working right. It's now fixed in CVS and snapshots. Allin
