vga_clear(3)							Svgalib User Manual						      vga_clear(3)

NAME
vga_clear - clear the screen
SYNOPSIS
#include <vga.h> int vga_clear(void);
DESCRIPTION
Clears the screen and sets all visible pixels to 0 (which is usually black). This is automatically done by a vga_setmode(3) call. The function always returns 0 (on which you should probably not really rely).
