Log and Output Cleaning

Attention : This code requires administrator privileges.

The `clean` macro is designed to clear the content of various windows in the SAS^© Studio or Display Manager environment. It uses the `dm` (Display Manager) command to specifically target the 'output' window, the 'log' window, and the 'odsresult' (ODS results) window, clearing them and allowing the continuation of execution thanks to the 'continue' option. This is useful for preparing the environment before a new execution, for debugging, or to ensure a clean display of results.

MACRO DEFINITION

Explanation :
This block defines a SAS macro named `clean`. When called, this macro executes a series of `dm` (Display Manager) commands to interact with the SAS user interface windows. Specifically:
- `dm output 'clear' continue;`: Clears the content of the output window.
- `dm log 'clear' continue;`: Clears the content of the SAS log window.
- `dm odsresult 'clear' continue;`: Clears the content of the ODS (Output Delivery System) results window.
The 'continue' option after each command ensures that the SAS program continues its execution even if the specified window is not open or does not exist in the current environment.
