how to clear the current line

Posted by powerpeanuts on May 11, 2022 at 12:00 am

I am using the console, how can I clear the current line? It seems the usual “Esc” button does not work.

For example:

q)”hello world”

And I would like to clear this line on this console. Thanks.

Are you on Windows/Linux/Mac?
1. Esc works in Windows (PowerShell + CMD)
2. In Linux (Bash) Ctrl +E, Ctrl + U https://stackoverflow.com/a/16687377/4256419
On Linux/Mac rlwrap is suggested.
