I have a question regarding TPU, specifically through the EVE interface.

Is there any way that anyone knows of to remove a buffer after it is no
longer needed.  i.e.-
I have just edited a buffer called FOOBALL.  Now I get a buffer called FOOBAR.
I am done with the buffer FOOBALL, and I would like to remove it from TPU
so that the buffer name "FO" is unique enough that I am put in FOOBAR.
The reason why I don't just quit and re-enter EVE with a new file is that
I have EVE running as a continuous subprocess which I just attach to whenever
I need it.  (It speeds things up a bit.)  I have re-defined ctrl-Z to do
the EVE command "ATTACH".

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nick Triantos
