| 60 | <STRONG>clear</STRONG> clears your screen if this is possible. It looks in |
| 61 | the environment for the terminal type and then in the <STRONG>ter-</STRONG> |
| 62 | <STRONG>minfo</STRONG> database to figure out how to clear the screen. |
| 63 | |
| 64 | <STRONG>clear</STRONG> ignores any command-line parameters that may be |
| 65 | present. |
