A pattern that will match that string is
"Legend\nfor name\nis not found"
\n matches the end-of-line marker in the Vim buffer. Vim converts
a file's end-of-line markers to its internal end-of-line markers
when it reads a file, and writes the appropriate end-of-line markers
to a file when it writes a file, according to the setting of
'fileformat', so you don't need to concern yourself with whether the
file uses LF or CR-LF at the ends of lines.
To delete all lines containing that string, you could use:
:g/"Legend\nfor name\nis not found"/.,+2d
The :g/<pattern>/d command deletes only the line at which the
pattern matches, which would delete only the line containing
'"Legend'. The .,+2 is needed to delete all three lines.
See
:help /\n
:help 'fileformat'
:help /\_.
:help :range

Perhaps we can put the name in b:recovered_swapfile, then you can define
a command to use that.

I my case, I often open a couple of vim or gvim instances and use
them for taking notes, without saving any of the buffers to files.
When I'm done with each of them, I just quit Vim and I don't have to
clean up any files. However, every now and then, the machine I'm
using goes down or is taken down without warning, and I need to
recover the buffers I had open. So I start vim or gvim, execute
:recover and am presented with a list of swap files found with names
like
%home%gary.swn
%home%gary.swo
%home%gary.swp
I open each one and see if I need to keep the contents. Then,
whether or not I want to keep one, I have to delete its swap file.
But which one? Yes, I could just pay close attention and remember
which swap file I opened in which window, and remember the swap
directory used on that particular machine, but it would be so nice
to be able to write a command like :DeleteSwap and have it just know
the swap directory (that I can do) and the swap file name and just
do it without me having to think.

Gary

I thought it mentioned "using swap file xxx".
We can mention the name again later.
Hmm, the hit-enter prompt is in the wrong place, let me fix that as

I usually edit the file again and at the "existing swap file prompt"
select "D" for delete. If there are multiple I suppose only the one you
used is relevant and all others can be deleted as well?
