       clear - clear the terminal screen

SYNOPSIS

       clear

DESCRIPTION

       clear clears your screen if this is possible.  It looks in
       the environment for the terminal type and then in the ter-
       minfo database to figure out how to clear the screen.

       clear  ignores  any  command-line  parameters  that may be
       present.
