Looking at ?rm, my solution would be something like

rm(list = grep("\\.NS$", ls(), value = TRUE))

I want to remove certain objects from the global environment  to reduce my EBS cost..for example, I want to remove all objects of class "xts", "zoo". Is there any way to automate this, instead of removing the objects one by one?
