clear Command
  
  
  Purpose
  
  Clears the terminal screen.
  
   Syntax
  
  clear
  
  Description
  
  The clear command clears your screen, if possible.  The clear
  command first checks the TERM environment variable for the termi-
  nal type.  Next, the /usr/share/lib/terminfo directory, which
  contains terminal definition files,  is  checked to determine how
  to clear the screen.  If the TERM environment variable is not
  set, the clear command exits without taking any action.
  
  Examples
  
  To clear your screen, enter:
  
  clear
  
  Implementation Specifics

  clear Command for the Kernel Debug Program
  
  
  Purpose
  
  Removes one or all breakpoints.
  
   Syntax
  
  clear [ * |  Address ]
  
  Description
  
  The clear command removes one or all breakpoints.  The Address
  parameter specifies the location of the breakpoint to be removed.
  If  you  specify  no  flags, the breakpoint pointed to by the in-
  struction address register (IAR) is removed.  The clear command
  can be initiated by entering clear, c, or cl at the command line.
  
  Addresses are entered as offsets at the start of their segment.
  In  the event that two breakpoints are set at the same offset  at
  the start  of  two different segments, and one breakpoint is then
  removed, the address specified to the clear command is not
  unique.    In  this case, each of the conflicting segment IDs are
  displayed, and the clear command displays a prompt requesting the
  ID of the segment you want to remove.
  
  Note:	Use the clear command only while running the kernel debug
  program.
  
  Examples
  
  1.	To clear the breakpoint at the IAR, enter:
  
  clear
  
  2.	To clear the breakpoint at the 10000200 address, enter:
  
  cl 10000200
  
  3.	To clear all breakpoints, enter:
  
  clear *
