======Synopsis:======
$__notw__(<number> <word list>)

======Technical:======
   * If the <number> argument is omitted the empty string is returned.
   * If the <number> argument is negative, <word list> is returned.
   * The return value of this function is <word list> with the <number>th word omitted, counting from zero.
   * Extra spaces surrounding the <number>th word will be removed.
   * Remember that <word list> is a list of [[what is a word|words]].

======Practical:======
Useful when you want to remove a word from a word list.

======Returns:======
The <word list> argument without the <number>th word, counting from zero.

======Examples:======
<file>
$notw(0 hello there how are you?)       returns "there how are you?"
$notw(2 hello there how are you?)       returns "hello there are you?"
$notw(-1 hello there how are you?)      returns "hello there how are you?"
</file>

======History:======
This function first appeared in "plus-2" (post-ircII, pre-EPIC)
