 +======Synopsis:======
 +$__remws__(<lwords> / <rwords>)
 +
 +======Technical:======
 +   * The first literal slash character found in the input acts as the separator between <lwords> and <rwords> This means that <lwords> must not contain any slashes, but <rwords> may.  If you do not put in a slash somewhere, the empty string is returned.
 +   * Any extra spaces between words in <rwords> will be removed.
 +   * The return value of this function will be all words in <rwords> that are NOT also in <lwords>.
 +   * This function can be quite expensive for large input strings.
 +
 +======Practical:======
 +You would use this function if you needed to remove more than one word
 +at a time from a word list.  <rwords> is the word list, and <lwords> 
 +are the words you want to have removed from <rwords> If you just want
 +to remove one word, use $[[remw]]().
 +
 +======Returns:======
 +<rwords> with <lwords> removed
 +
 +======Examples:======
 +<file>
 +$remws(foo bar / test blah foo fnord bar nyah) returns "test blah fnord nyah"
 +</file>
