Hello,<br>

You must have pyreadline installed (it isn't installed in the
default CPython distribution).<br>

<div>I just tried with this official Python binary:</div>

<div>and CTRL-L for sure does clear the window. It
just doesn't then move the prompt to the top, so
you end up with a bunch of empty lines, followed
by the prompt.</div>

<div>Yes, Ctrl-L doesn't clear the screen on

<div>Making Ctrl-L clear the screen would be
a good solution (no need for a clear

What is "it"? Are you talking about
Ctrl-L to clear the screen?
<br>
<br>
<br>
Perhaps we should start by adding Ctrl-L
as a standard way to clear the <br>
Python REPL, in the same way that Ctrl-C
is the standard way to <br>
interrupt the interpreter regardless of
whether you are using Linux, Mac <br>
or Windows.
<br>
<br>
(Also, it seems a shame that Ctrl-D is
EOF in Linux and Mac, but Windows <br>
is Ctrl-Z + Return. Can that be
standardized to Ctrl-D everywhere?)
