Introduction to how to add screen clearing function in Python

The following editor will bring you an example of adding the screen clearing function to IDEL in Python. The editor thinks it’s pretty good, so I’ll share it with you now and give it as a reference. Let’s follow the editor to take a look.

Just add a screen-clearing extension ClearWindow to idle (you can see the description of this extension in http://bugs.python.org/issue6143).
Below I will talk about the installation and use methods. First download clearwindow.py (click to download directly, if you cannot download it, you can right-click to save, the format ends with py), put this file in the Python X\Lib\idlelib directory (X is your python version), and then in this directory Find the file config-extensions.def (the idle extension configuration file), and open it in Notepad (to prevent errors, you can copy a backup before opening it). Well, it may look dense after opening it. If possible, it is recommended that you use an editor like Notepad++ or vim to open it.

Open config-extensions.def and add the following sentences at the end:

[ClearWindow]
enable=1
enable_editor=0
enable_shell=1
[ClearWindow_cfgBindings]
clear-window=<Control-Key-l>

Then save and exit.

Open python's idle and see if there is an additional option in options: clear shell window ctrl+L

If this is the case, it proves that your installation is successful. You will need to clear the screen directly in the future. Just ctrl+L.
