Keyboard shortcut to clear terminal #79

Closed muhammadkholidb closed 5 years ago

muhammadkholidb commented 5 years ago

Is there any keyboard shortcut to clear the terminal content like Ctrl + K in Mac terminal or Ctrl + Shift + K in Linux Mint terminal?

rafaeldev commented 5 years ago

Did you try using Ctrl + L?

muhammadkholidb commented 5 years ago

Tried that. It doesn't clear all the terminal buffer, but only the text currently seen. If you scroll up the terminal it you will see the previous text on the terminal.

you can make an alias https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5367068/clear-a-terminal-screen-for-real, and bind a new hotkey for it http://www.humbug.in/2010/custom-key-bindings-keyboard-shortcuts-in-bash/.

I don't see any keyboard shortcut to clear a terminal while a command is running. On Mac and Gnome it is something like Ctrl-K/Cmd-K. Making an alias is not useful if a command is currently running.
