Thank you for the reply Daniel.

I ran the script as you suggested and it returned that Pandoc was not 
installed.  So I guess it removed  some of the files.

However... I found another file in:
[image: pandoc-grab3.jpeg]

I've removed this too but, this file is not listed in the Terminal list of 
'Skipping' files.  So I'm wondering if there may be any other files that I 
haven't found?  Is there a list of installed files/folders anywhere?
