This function clears and redisplays frame @var{frame}.

will not occur if there is input pending. @xref{Command Loop}.

+Several messages may be stacked in the echo area at once. Lisp programs
may access these messages, or remove them as appropriate, via the
message stack.
If a message remains at the head of the message-stack and
@var{no-restore} is @code{nil}, it will be displayed. The string which
remains in the echo area will be returned, or @code{nil} if the
-message-stack is now empty. If @var{label} is nil, the entire
+message-stack is now empty. If @var{label} is @code{nil}, the entire
message-stack is cleared.
