\usage{
remove(..., list = character(0), pos = -1, envir = pos.to.env(pos),
       inherits = FALSE)
rm    (..., list = character(0), pos = -1, envir = pos.to.env(pos),

\description{
  \code{remove} and \code{rm} can be used to remove objects.  These can
  be specified successively as character strings, or in the character
  vector \code{list}, or through a combination of both.  All objects
  thus specified will be removed.

  If \code{envir} is NULL then the the currently active environment is
  searched first.

  If \code{inherits} is \code{TRUE} then parents of the supplied
  directory are searched until a variable with the given name is
  encountered.  A warning is printed for each variable that is not
  found.
