I use Windows XP, Python 2.7, Notepad++ as my editor, and generally
run my .py files from cmd, this is how I toggle between running my .py
file after an edit (and save) and subsequently clearing the screen -
it's pretty easy.
I "arrow-up/arrow-down" on the keyboard to reprint (type) the latest
command in cmd, this toggles between running my .py file...
runs my file ... C:\Python27\MyScripts>python helloworld.py
and to clear whatever printed to the screen...
clears the screen ... C:\Python27\MyScripts>cls
Once you've typed both at the prompt just arrow up or down, then hit
enter - file run or screen cleared, as well saves time retyping.
Sorry if I missed it but this works for me because I too prefer to
print to a cleared screen, don't know why, just do.
Mike :)
