Is this the only method to stop gnome-terminal from clearing on

By "this" you are talking about the proposed sledge-hammer way of faking
a vt220 terminal by moving and symlinking? Clearly, no.
Indeed, and the comments to that blog are much more informative than the
blog itself.
As the last comment points out, if you are on a Red-Hat-flavoured system
then simply "export TERM=xterm1" will work. Otherwise, the "right" way
to go about this is to decompile the terminal description, edit it, and
recompile, as noted in the penultimate comment.
Pretty much exactly, what I posted before. :) Except for that TERM
value. Didn't check the behavior of "xterm1", but the known to exist
"linux" terminal works. The conclusion in either case is, to simply set
the variable as desired.
Another way of disabling the alternate screen is to run "screen" inside
every terminal.
Incidentally, I don't find the alternate screen annoying at all - in
fact I miss it when it's not there.
Same for me. :) I prefer the xterm style of not overwriting my
screen...
