Can I clean the repl?

Question

I have played with a lot of code in a repl console, how can I clear it? I would like a fresh one without restarting it. Can that be done?

Answer 1

If you are running the repl through a terminal window (eg: Terminal.app on MacOS or xterm/aterm/urxvt etc on linux) then you can type Control-L and it should clear the terminal window and give you a new repl prompt. However all macros/atoms you previously defined are still going to be in memory, so this is just a "Cosmetic" clear.
