well if you type in the /clear command in msn, it clears all of the text apart from the last line of text that was placed, i've tried to make it easier to understand by making it into a .gif format.

This is known beheviour and not a bug; The last line is put there on purpose...

Although I also like to see that at least the "drunken.freestyle says:" line is put there as well....

Or that you can specify how much lines you want to stay, as I suggested before: <searching thread> thread seems to be pruned....

my suggestion was to allow parameters in the /clear command:

/clear => clears absolutely everything (default beheviour)
/clear 0 => see above
/clear 1 => keeps last line
/clear 2 => keeps last two lines
/clear 3 => etc...

a line should mean: a total conversation line including the line that states "person says:"
