[bug]: CLEAR command does not work in enhanced console (works on cqlsh)

[millerjp]

The CLEAR command in CQLSH is a utility command that cleans up the terminal window by clearing all previous output from the screen[1][2]. Here are the key details about using CLEAR:

Usage Methods

Command Syntax

• You can use either CLEAR or CLS as the command[1]
• No parameters are required for this command[1]

Keyboard Shortcut

• You can also use CTRL+L as a keyboard shortcut to clear the screen[1][4]

Platform Considerations

Unix/Linux

• The CLEAR command works natively in bash shell environments[4]

Windows

• In Windows command prompt, clearing the screen within CQLSH may be more limited[4]
• You might need to exit CQLSH and use the Windows CLS command separately[4]

Example Usage

cqlsh> CLEAR

cqlsh> CLS

This command will remove all previous output and give you a clean terminal window to work with[2]. It's particularly useful when you want to declutter your workspace after executing multiple commands or queries.
