clearing the text window in the environment

how do i do it? It seems to keep old errors there and I can't tell if my updated sketch is running without bugs. Am I missing something? I'm running mac osx 10.2.6

hi, this is kind of the wrong part of the forum here, but the console output will be cleared only when you restart the environment. you can tell if your sketch is running without bugs though, because if there're any (fatal ones) it won't run at all...

yeah, i've noticed this to be frustrating. it's already on the todo list but it's been a low priority. but it's coming...

you could always put a line of code at the begining of the setup() section of your sketch to indicate to yourself that whatever follows is new:
Code:
void setup() {
println("-- new run " + random(1) + " --");
//size(), bla, bla...
}

rev 66 spews a handful of blank lines when you hit run. i'm not nuts about this solution since it draws attention to itself (i.e. if it starts spewing to the console) even though nothing has happened. i can't think of any good "--- new run ---" text that wouldn't be too techy or too much of an eyesore.

what about "--new run <time stamp> --"
this would match the History listing type.
