# fd\_drop(1)

removes a value to a frame

## NAME

fd\_drop - removes a value to a frame

## SYNOPSIS

**fd\_drop** *frame* *slotid* *value*

Arguments are parsed by the conventions of [**fdshell**(7)](/fdshell/7.md)

## DESCRIPTION

**fd\_add** modifies the slot *slotid* of the frame *frame* to remove *value*

## OPTIONS

**fd\_drop** is implemented as an FDScript script, so its arguments may have CONFIG bindings, as well as accepting the flags **-m -c -f** to load modules, configs, and scheme files, as described in [**fdscript**(1)](/fdscript/1.md)

## CONFIG VARIABLES

- **%POOL**

  The default pool used for creating new frames

- **%POOLS**

  The pools used by the  [**fdshell**(7)](/fdshell/7.md) scripts; these determine which frames are accessible to access and searching

- **%INDICES**

  The background indices used to search for frames with particular slotid/value combinations.

- **%INDEX**

  The foreground index used by default to store newly created frame/slotid/value combinations.  Note that this is only used when indices directly associated with the frame's pool are not available or not modifiable.

## BUGS

It does not update the background indices to indicate the absence of *value* from *slotid* of *frame*
