replacing the Startup Disk Creator in Lubuntu 16.04 LTS

[Basil Fernie]

I use it quite a lot, keeping several distros of current interest on a  
flash stick for use as and when. Have had no problems with it so far.

One desirable feature would be to be able to remove a no-longer  
interesting distro without having to replace all the ditros on the stick.  
Surely not too difficult to add?

Regards,
Basil
