I don’t know if it makes any difference, but I always put the destination
before the name of the program.  Ex: “dll -p1 hello.lx”

Sorry, no. That's the one difference; it no longer says error deleting

I always use firmdl3 -s because using just firmdl3 on its own never works
for me.

I still have the problem that every time I download a program with any "-p0"
or "-p1" etc after it, it always deletes the program in slot 0 first and
then stores the program there instead of in the allocated slot from the
"-pX" suffix.
I can tell this because at the start of a large program download, the 0 in
the display turns to a "-" first, and then the 0 reappears once the program
has finished downloading. Does anyone else have this problem?

After making the change, do you still get "Error deleting program"? or other
errors while downloading the program?

Your assumption is correct, it will only switch to a program slot if there
is a valid program there.

I had problems sending programs using dll and using firmdl3 for a short
period...  I don't know why.  However, using firmdl3 -s (for slow) once
fixed it.  I think it was a port issue on the PC side.  It has worked fine
since.
