Clear - Node Module
Posted by Dave Eddy on Aug 15 2012 - tags: techClear the terminal screen if possible
I wrote up a super small module to mimic clear
on the command line for
Node.js. I was surprised when I didn’t find a module that already
did this in npm
.

Usage
Example
clear([bool])
You can optionally give clear an argument of false
to prevent it from clearing the screen.
This will not remove anything from the screen, but instead move your cursor to
position 0,0. Much like printing a \r
instead of a \n
to reset the current
line of output.
Installation
npm install clear
