[mcclim-devel] Non shrinking panes

[Nikolaus Demmel]

I have gained some confidence, that the issue has to do with output  
recording.

Unfortunately neither calling

(climi:reset-output-history pane)

nor

(clear-output-record (stream-output-history pane))

seems to do anything...

Anyone know how to clear the output history?

Regards,
Niko Demmel
