Re: clear screen

What problem would such an addition solve?

My problem with this is the implementation would be hackish. Either
jswat would have to use ANSI codes to clear the screen (which is not
entirely cross-platform), or it would simply print 1000 newlines. I'm
reluctant to add such hacks to jswat for a feature that I don't see the
use of.
