Wasn't that what you wanted? What else do you want?
If you want the screen to be cleared and repainted in your
colors, maybe you should append ``clear'' after the vidcontrol
command in the script.

I haven't tried it (I don't use colors). It should work
exactly as if you type the commands manually in your shell.

No. You don't write scripts in csh; it's evil. :-)
