Thank you for your reminder! I think you don't have to tell me to read the document.
I have done that many times already. My feeling after reading the "creating package" manual is that my god, this job needs a Computer Science degree to do it. It is way too complicated. There should be simpler ways. Perhaps I don't need a package. I just need to be able to call my "clearscreen" function from all of my other scripts... Where do I put my "clearscreen" function? Is there a command similar to "include" in C++? Is there a path management that I can call "clearscreen" function from anywhere as long as its in path?
