	Try the Clear Buffer command from the Edit menu. Be aware that
you'll lose everything shown on the screen before.

	By the way, is there a good reason not to support the set/clear TAB
escape sequence and local SETUP in the VT100/VT102 emulation in Microphone
II 2.0? Has this been changed in MP II 3.0? I ask this, because I couldn't
get Unix vi editor to work until I found that during login, the Unix host
sends a sequence of TAB setting escape sequnces to initialize the terminal.
Being lack of the TAB support, the internal TAB positions of the emulator
got screwup. The problem is solved by switching to another TERMCAP which
doesn't contain TAB setting in the initializing string (is).
