Possible settings any character The default action can be overridden by supplying a character which, when appended to the terminal-command control character (as specified with the CF parameter), forms a valid Natural terminal command.
Default setting % By default, when the CLEAR key is pressed, Natural responds as if the user had entered the terminal command %%.

Specification within session no  

Note:
Under Natural Security:, the setting of this parameter can be overridden by the Session Parameters option of the Library Profile.
