[jira] [Updated] (TINKERPOP-2357) Add a command to clear the Gremlin Console screen

["Stephen Mallette (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2357?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stephen Mallette updated TINKERPOP-2357:
----------------------------------------
    Description: 
Folks constantly try to use {{:clear}} to "clear the terminal" in Gremlin Console and there does not appear to be a nice way to do this across platforms. A recent post on Gremlin Users from [~krlawrence] here:

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/gremlin-users/BQfqEHmoG7E/wp7LVA1-CAAJ

that demonstrated that you can just send:

{code}
println("\033[H\033[2J")
{code}

made me think that it would be really easy to wrap that up in a command called {{:cls}} or shorthanded {{:C}} (since {{:clear}} is already taken).
