Keep scrollback buffer when clearing.

[Hassan-Shabbir]

I prefer to have this plugin keep the scrollback buffer when clearing the screen.
To do so I added the -x flag to the clear command on line 16 of almostontop.plugin.zsh.
Now after every command the screen is cleared but I am still able to access the outputs of previous commands by scrolling up.

Hello,
What does -x flag do? The reason I'm asking, I could see output of previous commands by scrolling up by default.

Interesting. For me, the clear command deletes it from the scrollback buffer so I can't scroll up to see the previously executed commands. I am using the xfce4-terminal app, so I assume that may be the reason.

From the clear man page:

OPTIONS
...
       -x   do not attempt to clear the terminal's scrollback buffer using  the
            extended “E3” capability.

So by using clear -x instead of clear it keeps the scrollback buffer for me.
