Subject: How to clear all previous terminal output which is currently visible?
Message-Id: <481da95d$0$7537$9b4e6d93@newsspool1.arcor-online.net>
Assume I have opened a terminal and already performed some commands which produced some
output lines.
Then I start a perl script which outputs also some line of text.
However I want at first all previous output lines in the terminal to be wiped.
All output should start with an "empty" terminal (of cause beside the prompt).
How can I wipe all old stuff?
In Windows command prompt there is a "cls" command but is not working in
perl/Linux terminals.
Is there an equivalent command?

I want to print the current time(stamp) in formatted style.
The following does not work:
print STDOUT "Now=%Y%m%d-%H%M\n", localtime(time);
What is wrong?

Try
use POSIX qw(strftime);
print strftime "%Y%m%d-%H%M\n", localtime;

Did you mean something like

This makes STDOUT nothing to print, I guess?
When running the slave prog directly by perl slave.pl, something is printed
onto screen
but perl master.pl (master.pl call salve.pl by system) does not

On my system it does.
Maybe you should post a simple example of master.pl and slave.pl
showing when it doesn't.

I cannot reproduce your problem:
C:\tmp>type master.pl
use strict; use warnings;
system 'slave.pl';
C:\tmp>type slave.pl
use strict; use warnings;
print "Slave here\n";
C:\tmp>master.pl
Slave here
Obviously the slave program prints to STDOUT just fine.
Please provide a minimal program that demonstrates your problem.

I haven't flamed anyone. I made comments. You came after me, like you
are here, rather than address the points.

Like I said, the only time, whine I smack "reply", that I see the
wrapping (after 3 levels of quoting) to be quite off. Most anyone else I
reply to doesn't yield such a result. What are your max character cut
offs set to for quoting? Mine is set to 72. It seem, after going over
your lines you are set to 74. Over the years I've most commonly seen 72
(and sometimes 76) as the recommended cut off. Especially in technical
groups.
Albeit the fact that 72 and 76 cause no problems for about a dozen quote
levels and 74 becomes a mess after 3 levels may be a deficiency in the
quoting mechanism in my reader. I suspect this is because of the leading
white space in the lines you quote. This would appear to be an uncommon
practice and apparently some readers don't deal with that too well. If
you could, please don't include leading white space in quoted lines.

Sorry, but no I do not. No one does. Not in order to post a comment.
I've been programming, administrating (UNIX, Linux, Solaris, Windows,
etc), and such for a long time, I've dealt with your type countless
times - the supposed veteran of a forum or news group who thinks they
can push people around for what ever reason because they believe they
have earned the right to do so. Sorry, but I don't care if you've been
around for just 20 minutes or 20 years, unacceptable behavior and same
rules should apply to everyone, not just what you might consider to be a
lower cast denizen.
> such as actual skill in helping others
I'll tell you what, learn to use your shift key properly, and I'll shift
around some time to help people out in this group. I don't really have a
problem taking time off from one forum, that I regularly help in, to
contribute help to another, but as I already told you before, it's
ludicrous to expect one to be a regular helper in every single group
they go to all the time, as there are only so many hours in the day and
for many who also work there are only so many out of the remaining hours
one can spend on forums, news groups, and mailing lists, so that does
necessitate being selective.

Source filters that try to heuristically parse Perl, or something like
it, (Switch being the canonical example) are typically unreliable, since
it's essentially impossible to parse Perl except by running it through
perl and looking at the resulting optree. Even PPI (a newish Perl module
that almost-perfectly parses Perl) isn't good enough, as there are cases
that simply cannot be parsed correctly without actually running the
code.
There are two ways I can see to avoid this. Devel::Declare gets around
the issue by (extremely hackishly) inserting hooks into the real parser,
which can then parse a short section of new syntax and return control.
While this has the advantage of using the real parser to parse
everything that isn't the new syntax, I'm not sure it can be done in
this case: I suspect the 'Syntax error' case fires too soon.
The alternative would be to ship my modified versions of toke.c and
perly.y (and derived files) with the module. This way I can compile
copies of yylex() and yyparse() that are actually correct, and still
call the functions in op.c to build the optree. Then I should be able to
install this parser as a source filter (in this case, one that simply
builds an optree and doesn't return any text to the 'real' parser, much
like ByteLoader) while avoiding the heuristics that usually make them so
unreliable.
> Other than that, I'd like it very much.
OK, cool. As you can see, it's quite a bit of work, so I'm not making
any promises :).

Nice. Is there a way to extend this to array slices?
my @users = $self->{users}[1, 3 .. 5]
But I guess that collides with existing valid syntax.

I would find that very useful. The effort of loading a module wouldn't
put me off, instabilities introduces by a source-filter might, though.

Note that it took less than an hour from you posted the right pieces
of code till you got an working answer. Before you posted the code
where you actually uses you package to get the error nobody would be
able to help without making som wild assumptions about what you were
doing.
Posting a complete minimal example showing you problem would have
helped you from the first post.

#The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
#comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
#the single line:
#
# subscribe perl-users
#or:
# unsubscribe perl-users
#
#to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
NOTE: due to the current flood of worm email banging on ruby, the smtp
server on ruby has been shut off until further notice.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
#To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
#to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
#where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
#For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
#perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
#sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
#answer them even if I did know the answer.
