ClearScreen (cls)

This is a replacement for CLS that is cross platform.

Instead of clearing the screen, it shows a blob of random ascii art. Because the blob is always likely to be different, this makes it easy to scroll up and see where you were before your last command.

The ascii art comes from me, except for some old stuff used for the OpenStack Trove project.

This isn't to be confused with the Inspect Class package, which uses the package name cls (this uses the package name clearscreen).

Install with uv or pipx or whatever, then run:

    ? uv tool install clearscreen
    ? cls
