1. Obscure commands, part 3

Quick note: to clarify a comment made in part 1, in PRINT # (and
INPUT #) statements, attributes such as BRIGHT are available WITHIN
the PRINT statement, but not as separate statements such as BRIGHT 1:
PRINT # . . .
3. CLS #
This command works on Sprectrum ROMs with the microdrive in use.
Keying this on normal T/S 2068s gives the ? cursor before the #.
Usually the 2068 BASIC is portrayed as a superset of the ZX Spectrum
BASIC. This is generally true, but here is one exception--an example
of a Spectrum statement that cannot be used on the conventional
2068. Are there others?
