DELETE/FIT name [conf_flag]
	delete a fit file
\us\pu
Purpose: 
              Delete a fit file.
\up\sy
Syntax: 
              DELETE/FIT name [conf_flag]
\ys\pa
              name = name of fit file, this file (in UNIX) or all versions
                     of it (in VMS) are deleted (on disk)
\ap\pa
              conf_flag = CONF or NO, if you want (or do not want) to confirm
                     the deletion of each file, defaulted to CONF
\ap\no
Note:   
              You should rather use this command instead of the relevant host
              system command, since it preserves the integrity of the active
              (enabled) fit file catalog.
\\
              I.e. if the deleted fit file has an entry in the currently active
              fit file catalog, its entry in the catalog is also removed.
