Hello All

I am new to teaching Python but have enjoyed the reaction of my students to Python.  I have been using the interactive mode to demonstrate and as a tool to check their understanding.  However, it is hard for them to see when I get down to the bottom of the page.  Is there a way to clear the screen or open a new interactive screen?

If not, it would be a useful tool to have.

You may also want to have a look at a little app I wrote called "Lightning Compiler".  It includes a standard Python interpreter but also a Python aware editor in  which you can enter code, click a button (or use a keyboard shortcut) and see the output in a separate window pane. With the editor, you can also run doctests - which is a good tool to check students understanding.
It can be found under lightning here:

It requires wxPython though...
