I used the selection tool to define a circle and saved it to a path.
I removed two segments from the circle, leaving two arcs.
I've duplicated the path.
I now want to edit the paths to remove an alternate arc from each.
I've managed it before, but forgot how. (I seem to recall seeing a Path icon as one of the modes offered the Tool Options tab of one of the tools, but don't recall the tool. EDIT: that turned out to be on Tools->Transform->Flip, as one example.)
Please help. Thank you.

Continued searching online and found a reference to ofnuts' Path-Edits tool.
Installing ofn-path-edits.py into .config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins and using Filters->Script-fu->Refresh Scripts made it visible on a menu.
On the Paths tab, highlighting the undesired part of the path and right-clicking on the path brings up a Paths menu which allows one to click Tools->Delete Strokes.
Done.
Thanks again ofnuts, for this functionality from 2016.
