A friend of mine has an HP 86-B micro and runs the UCSD P-system on it.
The oddity involves clearing the screen.  In other versions of the
P-system that I have seen you can clear the screen with:
	page(output);
assuming output is the screen, of course.  Well, this doesn't seem to work
in this version.  It's obvious this can be accomplished, the P-system
itself can clear the screen, and it's usually written in pascal also.
Can anyone out there in net-land inform me as to how this feat can be
accomplished?
