linuxvc
amount = 1

Removes amount lines from the current cursor row down. The remaining lines to the bottom margin are shifted up and space from the bottom margin up is filled with empty lines.

This unsets the pending wrap state without wrapping.

If the current cursor position is outside of the current scroll region it does nothing.

If amount is greater than the remaining number of lines in the scrolling region it is adjusted down.

In left and right margin mode the margins are respected; lines are only scrolled in the scroll region.

If the cell movement splits a multi cell character that character cleared, by replacing it by spaces, keeping its current attributes.

All other cleared space is colored according to the current SGR state.

Moves the cursor to the left margin.
