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  clears  your  screen if this is possible, including
+       its scrollback buffer (if the extended "E3" capability  is
+       defined).  clear looks in the environment for the terminal
+       type and then in the terminfo database to determine how to
+       clear the screen.
 
        clear  ignores  any  command-line  parameters  that may be
        present.
