Synopsis
CALL GCLRWK (WKID, COFL)
Usage
For workstations of type "1" (CGM), GCLRWK is interpreted as a picture termination in CGM generation. If
COFL = 0 and no output primitives have been written in the current picture, then a call to GCLRWK is a
"do nothing"; otherwise, it generates an END PICTURE element (as well as other picture initializing
elements). If COFL = 1, then a call to GCLRWK generates an END PICTURE.
For workstations of types "7" or "8" (see the man page for GOPWK for a description of workstation types)
clear workstations erases all primitives that appear on the screen.
For all other workstation types, clear workstation simply updates the workstation.
