;                       delete tplot variables
;                       del_data calls "store_data" with the DELETE keyword set
;                       let: input=['a','b','c','d','e','f']
;                       then, del_data,input is the same as

;CALLING SEQUENCE:      del_data,input
;INPUTS:                input:  strarr() or intarr() of tplot variables
