Clearing the screen by printing a character?

Question

I\'m using chez-scheme and I can\'t find a way to clear the screen completely. (If someone knows a better way than printing I\'d be interested in that too but it\'s not my q

Answer 1

You can print \033c which resets the terminal:

petite -q <<< '(display "\033c")'

\033 is escape and c is literal c.

I can't give you any information about how widely this is supported.
