delete_line

Context: sl.chips

Synopsis

Delete the specified line.

Syntax

delete_line();
delete_line( [ChipsId] );
delete_line( "line_id" );
delete_line( "all" );

Description

Depending on the argument, the delete_line command deletes the current line, the line indicated in a ChipsId structure or by the line_id, or all lines.

(no argument) - the current line is deleted.
ChipsId - an optional ChipsId structure containing values to modify the currency state for the command.
line_id - identification tag given to each object that is created; use this to delete a specific line.
all - deletes all lines.

Example 1

chips> add_line(0, 0, 1, 1);
chips> delete_line();

Create a line, then delete it.

Example 2

chips> id = ChipsId();
chips> add_line(.1, .3, .9, .3, "id=flat");
chips> add_line(.3, .8, .8, .2, "id=slope");
chips> id.line = "flat";
chips> delete_line(id);

Two lines are created; the second line is current after it is created. The id.line command sets the line value of the ChipsId structure to the first line. That line is then deleted.

Example 3

chips> add_line(0, 0, 1, 1);
chips> add_line(.1, .3, .9, .3);
chips> delete_line("all");

Two lines are created, then the delete_line command deletes them both.
