Data type meanings

Description

Triggers, aliases and timers can be placed in "groups" where a group is a bunch of related items. Groups have names, there is no restriction on the name of a group. Ungrouped items have blank (empty) names.

To delete an entire group of triggers, aliases and timers do this:

world.DeleteGroup "groupname"

For debugging purposes the function returns a count of the number of members deleted. eg.

dim mycount
mycount = world.DeleteGroup ("groupname")

If you are using plugins only the members of the current plugin (if any) are deleted. If the call is made outside a plugin only the members of the group that are not in a plugin are deleted.
