- Can someone tell me how to do this? I'm writting an arexx program that
- reads data from FIFO:VLTR. The trouble is, when my program starts up
- there is already data in the buffer. I need to clear this out.
-
- I've tried reading data until lines("FIFO:VLTR") = 0 but it seems to
- always return 0.
