Hello,
You must have pyreadline installed (it isn't installed in the default
CPython distribution).
Best regards,

Hi JM,
Windows 7 Enterprise
"Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]"
I am running Python directly from the shortcut created on installation.
But starting it from cmd.exe has the same effect.
Codepage is 437 , this may be relevant?
I just tried it on a Windows 10 PC, there it has the same effect.

Hello,
I tried on Python 2.7.10 and Python 3.5.2 and Ctrl-L doesn't work
on both.
I tried on 2 PCs with Windows 7 and none of them worked.
What is your Windows version? Are you trying on the cmd.exe
console or PS?
Best regards,
JM

Hi all,
I just tried with this official Python binary:
Python 3.5.2 (v3.5.2:4def2a2901a5, Jun 25 2016, 22:01:18) [MSC
v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
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.

Hello,
Yes, Ctrl-L doesn't clear the screen on Windows.
Making Ctrl-L clear the screen would be a good solution
(no need for a clear screen command).
Best regards,
JM

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