Hello, `clear' command works. $TERM is linux, and xterm: I've tested in both TTYs, and X11
$ bind -p | grep clear "\C-l": clear-screen I've tried to un-bind (bind -r ^L), at this moment TTY beeps on Ctrl-L and re-bind (bind ^L:clear-screen): no beep, just new line the terminal can C-l, I use it with Debian's default /bin/bash (3.2.39(1)-release) but as soon as I go to /usr/local/bin/bash (where bash4 is), it doesn't work any more. Thank you for your interest.
