#' Remove a Group from a Spectra or Spectra2D Object
#'
#' Removes specified groups from a \code{\link[ChemoSpec]{Spectra}} or
#' \code{\link[ChemoSpec2D]{Spectra2D}} object.
#'
#' This function will report if extra data elements are found.  These will
#' probably need to be edited manually.  The indices reported to the console
#' can be helpful in this regard.
#'
#' If \code{rem.group} is a character vector, the sample
#' names are grepped for the corresponding values.  Remember that the
#' grepping process is greedy, i.e. grepping for "XY" find not only "XY" but
#' also "XYZ".
#'
#' Unused levels in \code{$groups} are dropped.
