On the master branch, a direct call to clearscreen() e.g. from JS, for an ANSI terminal user, would not go through outcom() (and thus not hit any FF case):
```
void sbbs_t::clearscreen(int term)
{
	clear_hotspots();
	if (term & ANSI)
		putcom("\x1b[2J\x1b[H");    /* clear screen, home cursor */
	else if (term & PETSCII)
		outcom(PETSCII_CLEAR);
	else
		outcom(FF);
	row = 0;
	column = 0;
	lncntr = 0;
}
```
Probably a bug.
