Go to scriptspot.com and search for clearmedit, it sounds like it does exactly what you are looking for :)

for i = 1 to 24 do
(
meditmaterials[i] = Standard()
meditmaterials[i].name = "Material " + i as string
)

for i = 1 to 24 do
(
meditmaterials[i] = Standard()
meditmaterials[i].name = "Material " + i as string
)

Well that code will clear all slots, not just the unused ones.

for i in 1 to 24 do for m in scenematerials where m.name != ((medit.GetTopMtlSlot i).name) do meditmaterials[i] = standard()
-- loop from 1 to 24 slots
-- loop from all scenematerials
-- compare base material names



this code will sort of do the trick, but it wont clean the material slot if it has duplicate base material names.

hope this helps :)
