I think you misunderstood, Rolf.
Right now
print
by itself throws an error.
I am proposing making that command -- by itself -- clear both the Jmol
console and the System.out JavaScript console (what is displayed using the
JSCONSOLE command).
So no loss to what we have; only a gain.
There is also an inconsistency I see with the JavaScript or Java applet,
but not the Java application, that
print ""
also clears the Jmol console. I propose removing that and having it just
print a blank line, as is done for the application.
