Very quick question: clearing chatbox
« on: July 23, 2006, 07:06:16 pm »
Is there a console command to clear the screen of text? Something akin to "cls" in DOS? I'm experimenting with .cfg files, and having a command clear the chatbox before echoing its output would be extremely helpful.

Couldn't find this in my searches, (is it just me, or is the search function of these forums reaaaally general?) so I had to make a thread out of it.

Alright, I'll try that, thanks. One more question, does autogen.cfg completely rewrite itself when tremulous runs, or when you change a setting through the gui, or is it possible to add things to it? I've got a cfg with binds to exec other cfg files, and i'm wondering if it does anything to add "exec default.cfg" into autogen.

(In CS:S, autoexec.cfg kept resetting :/ )

Edit: wait, I just read some other threads. I just call the cfg autoexec.cfg, right?

Edit 2: one last little question, where would I find somewhere showing examples of all the possible font colours in Tremulous?
