Arguments: stream buffer-only
When buffer-only is nil,
clears any pending input on the device connected to
stream. May do nothing if buffer-only is
true or if the underlying device has no buffering
of its own. The buffer-only argument circumvents
any hanging when a stream is re-established after a dumped (see
dumplisp.htm) image has been restarted.
simple-stream:
returns nil.
terminal-simple-stream:
non-blocking read-octets is done repeatedly
until 0 is returned.
See streams.htm for information on the simple-streams implementation in Allegro CL. The older but still supported Gray streams implementation is described in gray-streams.htm.
