back in the old fashioned days of dos when gui's (graphical user interface) were not invented, and there was loads of data on the screen it was used to stop the data getin displayed so it could bee seen before it scrolled off the top of the screen, these days it just sits there and never gets used

Just one of those now useless, archaic items on a keyboard, much like your appendix or gall bladder.

Doesn't the gall bladder secret bile, which helps digestion of fats?
