<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
|
|
|
|
<B>clear_console</B> clears your console if this is possible. It looks in the
|
|
environment for the terminal type and then in the <B>terminfo</B> database to
|
|
figure out how to clear the screen. To clear the buffer, it then changes the
|
|
foreground virtual terminal to another terminal and then back to the original
|
|
terminal.
