see the chapter entitled "Memory Management."  The command
'Memory()' lists the contents of the working memory.

Example

Use R ::= Q[x,y,z];
X := Ideal(x,y);
Y := 3;
Use S ::= Q[a,b];
Z := a^2+b^2;
Memory();  -- the contents of the working memory
["X", "Y", "Z"]

Delete X;
Memory();  -- X has been deleted from the working memory
["It", "Y", "Z"]
