+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fBerase\fR and \fBwerase\fR routines copy blanks to every
+position in the window, clearing the screen.
+.PP
+The \fBclear\fR and \fBwclear\fR routines are like \fBerase\fR and
+\fBwerase\fR, but they also call \fBclearok\fR, so that the screen is
+cleared completely on the next call to \fBwrefresh\fR for that window
+and repainted from scratch.
+.PP
+The \fBclrtobot\fR and \fBwclrtobot\fR routines erase from the cursor to the
+end of screen.  That is, they erase all lines below the cursor in the window.
+Also, the current line to the right of the cursor, inclusive, is erased.
+.PP
+The \fBclrtoeol\fR and \fBwclrtoeol\fR routines erase the current line
+to the right of the cursor, inclusive, to the end of the current line.
+.PP
+Blanks created by erasure have the current background rendition (as set
+by \fBwbkgdset\fR) merged into them.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+All routines return the integer \fBOK\fR on success and \fBERR\fP on failure.
+The SVr4.0 manual says "or a
+non-negative integer if \fBimmedok\fR is set", but this appears to be an error.
+.PP
+X/Open defines no error conditions.
+In this implementation,
+functions using a window pointer parameter return an error if it is null.
+.SH NOTES
+Note that \fBerase\fR, \fBwerase\fR, \fBclear\fR, \fBwclear\fR,
+\fBclrtobot\fR, and \fBclrtoeol\fR may be macros.
+.SH PORTABILITY
+These functions are described in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4.  The
+standard specifies that they return \fBERR\fR on failure, but specifies no
+error conditions.
+.PP
+Some historic curses implementations had, as an undocumented feature, the
+ability to do the equivalent of \fBclearok(..., 1)\fR by saying
+\fBtouchwin(stdscr)\fR or \fBclear(stdscr)\fR.  This will not work under
+ncurses.
+.PP
+This implementation, and others such as Solaris,
+sets the current position to 0,0 after erasing
+via \fBwerase()\fP and \fBwclear()\fP.
+That fact is not documented in other implementations,
+and may not be true of implementations
+which were not derived from SVr4 source.
+.PP
+Not obvious from the description,
+most implementations clear the screen after \fBwclear\fP
+even for a subwindow or derived window.
+If you do not want to clear the screen during the next \fBwrefresh\fP,
+use \fBwerase\fP instead.
