...even more strange than the reported bug:
clc(1) seems to behave different when directly written into the console vs
used from SciNotes.

from SciNotes:

clc();for i=1:10 mprintf("%d\n",i)endclc(1)

result in console:
 1
2
3
4
5
6
7  // note that number 8,9,10 are cleared..so it's 3 lines, not only two

-->

code directly put into console...do this step by step
--> clc();
--> for i=1:10 mprintf("%d\n",i) end
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

--> clc(1)
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9

-->  // works as expected

tested on win7, Scilab 6.0.2

best regards,
Philipp
