There are a couple of approaches here. You could use a screen control library like slang or curses (curses is in the standard library), but that is usually overkill if you aren't creating a moderately complex interface. If you just want to clear the screen, printing the control sequence ESC[2J is all you need.
>>> print chr(0x1b) + '[2J' http://www.python.org/pyvault/SRPMS/repodata/repoview/python-newt-0-0.52.0-2.html http://www.wanware.com/tsgdocs/snack.html http://docs.python.org/library/curses.html http://www.termsys.demon.co.uk/vtansi.htm Cheers _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
