I'm looking for a "clear" command under bash that will clear the screen in the same way that cls does in a DOS session. All I can think of at the moment is creating a function that echo's the ANSI clear screen control sequence, but would rather not make ansi.sys a requirement for this application. Anyone tackle this problem already?
