Since I’ve been quite busy recently, I only have one short tip today. I sometimes use Eshell, and sometimes want to clear it so that I can e.g. isearch through the result of running some command and not be bothered by the output of previous commands. In such a case, I can say clear
, but it does not really clear the Eshell buffer – it only makes the part above point scroll past the visible part (and it seems that it doesn’t even take into account the font – if I make it smaller, clear
does not scroll enough). But I can also give clear
any argument (e.g., say clear t
), and then the previous contents of the buffer are really deleted. Handy.
