Add clear_functions to your system's SunView rootmenu.  Note that the
rootmenu will take advantage of the user's search path.  I'm using the
following setup, containing additions appropriate for using X:

excerpt from ~/.rootmenu
__________

...
"Keyboard"              MENU $HOME/.rootmenus/keyboard
...
__________

text of ~/.rootmenus/keyboard (kbd_mode is part of X11, fixkeyboard of X10)
__________

"Mode Sun, encoded"      kbd_mode -e 
"Mode Sun, unencoded"    kbd_mode -u 
"Mode Ascii"             kbd_mode -a 
"Mode Non-encoded"       kbd_mode -n 
"Clear Functions"        clear_functions  
"Fix Keyboard (X10)"     fixkeyboard 

kbd_mode without args returns syntax and current setting.
