The REPL becomes quickly messy, I miss a 'clean' function

Thanks for the issue! Make sure it satisfies this checklist. My human colleagues will appreciate it!

Here is what to expect next, and if anyone wants to comment, keep these things in mind.

If you did mean cleaning the output, then this is usually the responsibility of the terminal application itself (e.g. by pressing Ctrl-L in most Mac or Linux terminal applications).

zwilias commented 6 years ago

In addition to that, there is :reset to clean up the environment, i.e. remove all imports and previous declarations.

zwilias commented 6 years ago

:help lists this and other operations. Perhaps the description of the :help command is lacking, though.

xD

If I like to clean the screen, I try clean, since thats the command I know.

If this does not work, will I try to google "Elm REPL clean screen/content/log/output"

It will lead to nothing useful.
