I'm using the Python console for my program right now, as a way of working out the game logic without bothering with the graphics and GUI. How do I clear the terminal screen (in a way that'll work in the executable, not just IDLE)? Right now as I print one display or menu after another, others are still visible on the top of the screen, which looks confusing. What's the equivalent of the DOS command "cls"?
