list of PATTERNs inside, either one per line or several per line with spaces as separators.
So you can run "slackpkg remove d" to remove all from package series d - development. Another example would be to run "slackpkg remove kde" to remove all from the kde package set. It's a really useful tool and well worth checking out.

Yes, slackpkg is a very helpful tool!
I used this to remove kde kdei y series of packages! I use xfce, I suggest you to do the same thing;
