simh running rsts

$[2J
not clear the screen. VT100 sequence is ESC[2J as well as ansi
sequence! It does the same thing on the direct-serial-connected vt100
emulating HP terminal...
Gah!

Basic grabs the ESC...
I think you need to do
print chr$(155%);"[2J"
That's from memory...I don't have the fake PDP-11 switched on ATM.

I wonder if I need to "wake up" the terminal with some other escape
sequence
first????

Try
print chr$(27+128);"[2J"
RSTS plays odd games with the escape character (prints it as
a dollar sign most of the time), and setting the parity bit helps.
There are various "open" modes, and terminal settings that
will bypass this, but this is easier.
Gah!
