clearing an interactive python interpreter/shell - rootVIII - Jan-27-2019
I got really sick of always doing this when I want to clear my shell:
from os import system
system('clear')Or with the subprocess module etc...So I made the simplest module ever on Pypi: pip3 install clear-screen
from clear_screen import clear clear()The import statement isn't much better than the os module import... but I like being able to quickly type clear() when I want to. Maybe there is already a module to do this? If not then there is now! clear-screen

In cmder with interactive shell ptpython(my favorite) or IPython.
Then do
CTRL + L work.IDLE and cmd is just bad compare to what i posted over in Windows.
I use command line a lot,so using cmd/powershell is just terrible compared to cmder(16k stars on GitHub).
cmder is as good as any Terminal/shell that i use on Linux(i like to use fish shell on Linux).

I don’t like keyboard shortcuts as much because I have to remove my hands from the qwerty position hahaha
