No recourse for irreversible `clear` command #1560

Open nus-pe-bot opened 3 months ago

nus-pe-bot commented 3 months ago

As a user who is accustomed to using the CLI, the clear command is something I use often to clear the message logs.

In the application, the clear command irreversibly clears all contacts with no option to undo.

This could pose a serious issue to advanced CLI users who habitually use the clear command.

Hi, thanks for pointing this out, however we believe that this is not a big issue as the clear command is very distinguishable from all our other commands and it is highly unlikely that the user will ever accidentally run it.

An 'undo' command would be helpful, however, we believe that it is of a much lower priority than the other features we have implemented.
