The fix to MENU EDIT II to correct the scrambled screen after
printing documentation to a PAGER was to edit three lines and
to add one line:

  -------- 2 lines changed at lines 7-8 from:
      7  Then: Slash = chr("92") ' Windows OS
      8  Then: Slash = "/" ' UNIX OS
  ----- to:
      7  Then: Slash = chr("92") ; Clear_Scrn = "cls" ' Windows OS
      8  Then: Slash = "/" ; Clear_Scrn = "clear" ' UNIX OS

  -------- 1 line changed at line 1484 from:
   1484  Then: show "" ; input popup WKey "\r VIEW \r the Documentation ?  
               ( Y or \r N \r ): "
  ----- to:
   1484  Then: system Clear_Scrn ; show "" ; input popup WKey "\r VIEW \r
               the Documentation ?  ( Y or \r N \r ): "
  
  -------- 1 line added at 1720:
   1720  Then: declare Clear_Scrn        ' Holds clear screen command:

If anyone wonders why I didn't just use filePro's CLS command,
it's because it didn't work, so I had to resort to using the
operating system's clear screen command.
