Don't! Try the routine. Each one of those snippets is standalone, and proves
itself (generates a result).

What version of U2 is that? Must be an old one. Nonetheless, CLEARSGTS *will*
work anyway, because the framename is "CLEARSGT*" with a terminal asterisk --
so it will take an appended "S" (or an appended anything), although the
intention of that "*" is quite different.
