Newbie question - clearing screen @ interactive prompt

[Max Ischenko]

Well, you can run any system command from within Python as well:

import os
os.system('clear')

But I'm not sure this will help in this case. Are you trying to program
a console app in Python?  If so, you may want to look into curses
module or other console lib that  has Python bindings (like newt).
