For TRS-80 BASIC, I think. For Commodore BASIC, it's PRINT CHR$(147) (you can also type PRINT and a quote and hit SHIFT-CLR HOME and another quote, which works well when you want to print a string that starts by clearing the screen and going to the top left corner, then has other movement and/or text) There are a number of Commodore BASIC books out there, and for beginner stuff, the one that comes with the machine (if you get one in the box) will get you started. -ethan
