How to delete a lookup table file and definition?

I am testing some lookup files in a dev environment. I would like to clear out the first few tries and work with only the newest file and definition. I have no delete option the UI. The definitions allow me to disable, but I want to just wipe them out.
What is my course of action? Splunk 6.1x

If you have permissions you can delete them from Settings -> Lookups -> Lookup table files or Lookup Definitions
.
On many browser window resolutions the delete option is on the far right and the page isn't rendered with a scroll bar. Zoom out or increase the resolution to see the delete option on the far right.

I ran into something similar today, not sure if it's the same.
I could not find the delete for the definition I created, until...
I scrolled sideways to the right.

go to your splunk_home/bin directory in command line interface.
and run splunk clear ... command
you can run splunk help clear command to see all option about delete sommething
for me i use linux i do like this:
in CLI cd /opt/splunk/bin
./splunk option clear
to see option clear command before use to delete what you want.
note: you can use delete command.
sorry for my english.
