Bluetooth - remove device from list command ?

[anneranch]

I have an icon , in upper right top of initial screen, it is a Bluetooth symbol.
I am do not know what OS application runs it but it is managing Bluetooth.
At some point I have an option to "remove device from list".
Can somebody lead me to the actual command which does that ?
I need to clear this mystery list so my (C code) scan
for nearby Bluetooth devices actually physically scans
for devices and NOT retrieves data from this unknown "list".

There are a few different ways to do this.

You might take a look at.

Thanks.I can use some of the commands.
Not sure I like the "bluez" in part of the name...

Since this was build in 2017 - I like to MODIFY my post

What is the BASE command structure for using Bluetooth ?
It sure looks as "HCI" .
Can anybody care to confirm or dispute that?
