Completely Clear command prompt through bash
I am actually making a menu for my official server.
I made it through bash scripting on AIX.
The problem i am facing is that when script is running, user can scroll up and see history of all commands he used/entered etc. Even though i clear the screen but scrolling up still shows the previous commands.
Is there any way that i can permanently clear the screen so that even scrolling up cannot show anything.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards.
