Clear input prompt after input is entered?

2013-10-09 Thread Benjamin Klein
When I accept user input in a function using input() and don't output any new messages for the rest of the function, the input prompt and the input remain as the last message. Is there any way to clear the prompt line once input has been received? Thanks! -- b smime.p7s Description: S/MIME
