README says:
However: The window does not hide, if you erase everything with the eraser
tool, you have to clear the screen explicitely with the "gromit --clear"
command or hide Gromit with "gromit --visibility".
solene@t480 ~ $ gromit --visiblity
Unknown Option: "--visiblity"
Please see the Gromit README for the correct usage
solene@t480 ~ $ gromit --clear
Unknown Option: "--clear"
Please see the Gromit README for the correct usage
