You can use clear command to show any commands output as full screen based as example as,

#!/bin/ksh
# full screen test

while true; do
clear
ls
sleep 4
done

exit 0
# end

It will show the files in the current directory. sleep 4 is used to syncronize operation.

If i am giving wrong answer let me know your more input to give suitable solution.

HTH.
