ah, now i *specifically* looked at stripdel to see if it supported the
"-" argument, since that's the first thing i thought of, but that page
in helptool didn't say anything about "-" as an argument, so i assumed
it wasn't available.  (i was assuming that, if a bk command supports
"-", its helptool page will say so.  like in "bk get".)

and i tried looking in bk.script as well, but stripdel isn't defined
in there, so reading the source didn't get me very far.  argh.
