stephen mallette commented on TINKERPOP-1226:
---------------------------------------------

I'd be OK with this I think. Of course, I do tend to do this sometimes:

{code}
gremlin> 1 +
gremlin> x
No such property: x for class: groovysh_evaluate
Display stack trace? [yN] n
gremlin> 1
==>2
{code}

If we auto-cleared the buffer, I'd have to re-enter my stuff rather than just recover. Of course, I could just up-arrow the history to get it back i suppose.

I tend to do this too:

{code}
gremlin> 1 + 
gremlin> x
No such property: x for class: groovysh_evaluate
Display stack trace? [yN] n
gremlin> :d
 000> 1 + 
gremlin> 1
==>2
{code}

{{:d}} inspects the buffer so you can see what the heck you have hanging around in there. I guess these are not things that new users would know about though.....

> I don't know if this is possible, but Martin brought this up the other day. Why not just automatically call {{:clear}} after an Exception has been through to get the Console back into an orderly state.
