clipdel deletes clipmenu entries matching a regex. By default, just lists what
it would delete, pass -d to do it for real.

".*" is special, it will just nuke the entire data directory, including the
line caches and all other state.

Arguments:

    -d  Delete for real.

Environment variables:

- $CM_DIR: specify the base directory to store the cache dir in (default: $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, $TMPDIR, or /tmp)
