CLEAR SCREEN
Clear the screen and return the cursor home
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
CLEAR [SCREEN] | CLS
Arguments
SCREEN suppresses the automatic releasing of Get objects from the
current and visible GetList array when the screen is CLEARed.
Description
CLEAR is a full-screen command that erases the screen, releases pending
GETs, and positions the cursor at row and column zero. If the SCREEN
clause is specified, Get objects are not released.
CLS is a synonym for CLEAR SCREEN.
Notes
. SET KEY and VALID: If you are editing GETs, executing a CLEAR
within a SET KEY procedure or within a VALID user-defined function
will abort the active READ when control returns. To clear the screen
without CLEARing GETs, use either the CLEAR SCREEN or CLS commands.
Files Library is CLIPPER.LIB.
