I'm not very experienced at this, but I want to know how I can delete/
tidy up files that I have uploaded to my Apps Engine?

If you remove the file from your local development directory then upload the app using the same "version" parameter in the app.yaml file, the file will be deleted from App Engine.  If the file is in a different "version" of the app and the version is no longer the default version, you can delete the entire version from the Admin Console.

Dan, thanks for clarifying that. Where in the Admin console can I see
the files that I want to delete? (I am in the Admin console now, but
it is not obvious where I can see and delete unwanted files.

You wouldn't delete a file, you'd delete a version of the application.  See the Versions section of the Admin Console.

If you want to delete a file from the current version, simply delete it locally, then re-upload the app.  You don't need the Admin Console for that.
