Well, the reason they don't clear the last column is, as you said, that the
os doesn't use the last column for anything. This can be shown if an asm
program leaves stuff on the graph screen in the last column and you go to the
graph screen then return to the home screen.
But anyway, why are you doing silent linking in the middle of a program? If
you're using _getkey, I strongly recommend switching to _get_key.
