Sorry, but what are you talking about? The page that you linked isn't
about psql.
Doc about psql (https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-psql.html)
doesn't mention `\! clear`

And finally, whatever works after \! is not PostgreSQL fault/feature
- what is afterwards is simply passed as command to the operating
system.

So, if your OS has "cls" command, you can \! cls. If it doesn't then you
have to use something else.

Best regards,
