Thanks Sam,
We tried to change the TERM variable to other types such as dumb or
printer, but W # still clears the screen. I understand that it's
handled in GT.M internals, sr_****t/iott_wtff.c . Is there any
workaround? Is there an OPEN or USE parameter to change this
behaviour?
When writing to (RMS) sequential files W # genetates a form-feed (*12).
