When you exit vim, less, man, and possibly other applications the background
color is set to black regardless of the setting in the shortcut that
launches the console. The clear command returns the background to the
correct color. This problem was first reported in Oct 2005 but was
incorrectly attributed to settings in the PS1 environment variable, which
are not the cause of the problem.
