Though I made it so long ago that I can't rightly remember, you
may want to find the program 'houseclean' or 'housecleaner' that I wrote
and mailed to the list. With a little touch up work, I believe it will
work okay.. It renumbers the player index (correctly), and deletes all
files associated with them.
It is a perl script for the original incarnation of the ascii
pfiles from sammy.
