I'm trying to clear the screen in Python's IDLE shell, and so far haven't found any working mechanism to do so.
How can this be done?
An unobvious way to clear Shell is to open an empty file, save it if necessary, close Shell, and run the empty file. Pretty poor, but it works. Select-All and Delete works in editors but not Shell. Issue 50393 is about adding an obvious and direct way to clear Shell. But there are several technical issues which I have gotten no feedback on.
I will take your question as a vote for doing something, whatever I think best.
