Hi !
Trying to resolve a SOUND problem in 1.2, I switched to 2.0.3 which was a successful step for that problem.
But the new version seems largely slower with EGA graphics and CLS does no more blank the bottom of Screen 9, leaving the instruction line whatever parameter (0,1,2) is used. OK, drawing a foreground filled box does the job but it looks as a bug anyway !
Using Windows 10 64 bits 20H2.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hi, I tried this on the original GW-BASIC in SCREEN 9 and CLS does not blank the bottom line there either, nor do CLS 0, CLS 1 or CLS 2. So I think the behaviour in 2.0.3 is correct and the old version is the one with a bug. If you need the bottom line cleared, have you tried KEY OFF ?

Thank you for the Key Off idea ! Works fine !
