It's great by correcting package name. Thanks for your tips of '-x'
option !!!

Either I use 'pkg_delete xorg-docs' or 'pkg_delete xorg-docs-1.4.1',
pkg_delete yields the error of 'no such package'. Checking via 'pkg_info'

did not use the wrong command.
Hmmm... That's a typo. The package name is:
lucid-nonsense:...ports/x11/xorg-docs:% make -V PKGNAME
xorg-docs-1.4,1
Note the comma -- that's part of the version number, and needs to be
copied down verbatim for pkg_delete(1)
It is often convenient to use the -x or -X switches with these
utilities, or to use a glob, so that you only have to type part of the
full PKGNAME, e.g.:
pkg_delete xorg-docs\*
pkg_delete -x xorg-docs
Just make sure that the glob or regex that you use only applies to the
packages that you want the utilities to act upon, e.g.:
pkg_info -I xorg-docs\*
pkg_info -Ix xorg-docs
See the manpages of the utilities for details.
