I can think of at least three behaviours: 1. Move all existing console output off-screen, displaying a fresh prompt at the top of the window. Existing output is still available, but you have to scroll up to see it. 2. Not just hide the existing output, but remove it from the scrollback buffer. 3. Like 2 above, but also force the terminal settings back to their default state (useful if you have accidentally printed terminal control codes that have messed up the settings). On Linux, I think that option 3 is best left for the terminal application. There is usually a "Reset" command that will do that. I don't know what Mac and Windows offer, but either way, that's probably something best left for the console or terminal application itself. -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/IITZGD5KE4RPZBRY2AIADPSK5QNT2QZS/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
