The simplest answer is
print('`\x1b[2J\x1b[H')
Are there any terminals that this does not work on that are in active use?
Is using curses that uses termcap needed these days?
Of course Windows is the outlier, but the new Windows Terminal
supports ANSI escapes sequences and utf-8.
I tested the above with Windows Terminal 1.4 on Windows 10
and it just works.
Otherwise os.system('cls') works for windows terminal and the old
windows console stuff.
