It has been some time since I used the Xerox 1186 frequently and I have
managed to get the machine in a position where I cannot delete a file.

The file shows up in filebrowser and when I try to expung the file it
won't. I would assume the file had been opened at one time and now it is
neccessary to close the file, but how?

I am using the Lyric version.
