Hi all,

The other day I wanted to use CLS with a parameter to clear a part of the screen, but could not remember which one of 1,2,3,4 was needed. I could, of course, experiment with the parameter numbers to find the one I wanted but doing that would be time consuming. Instead, I decided to look up ...

I notice that the config program is not included in this latest release.
