[Konsole-devel] Menu options to clear terminal

[Robert Knight]

Hello,

KDE 3 has 3 menu options related to clearing the terminal,
- One to clear the display, but without resetting
- One to clear the display and reset the terminal
- One to clear the history

An option missing from that list and one which I have often had a need
for is to clear everything ( current display and history ) and reset
the terminal at the same time.  For this I have added a "Clear History
and Reset" menu item for KDE 4.

The problem is that there are now 4 menu items related to clearing the
display and/or history.  I am concerned that this may be confusing for
new users.  One possibility I had thought of is removing the menu
items which clear the display without resetting ( ie. so the only
options left are to clear the current display and reset or clear
everything and reset ).  Is there common use case for clearing the
display and not resetting which I have forgotten?

Regards,
Robert.
