.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBclrtoeol()\fR function clears the current line from the cursor to  the
right margin in the \fBstdscr\fR window. The \fBwclrtoeol()\fR function
performs the same action, but in the window specified by \fIwin\fR instead of
\fBstdscr\fR. The current background character (and rendition) is used to clear
the screen.
.sp
.LP
If the clearing action results in clearing only a portion of a multicolumn
character, background characters are displayed in place of the remaining
portion.
