Is there a command only clear terminal to previous mark like cmd+L does in macos?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

Basically I want to look back to my previous console output from time to time, but the cleanliness of console is also important to me. So if I wrongly output something to console, I want just remove that part.



something like this but ignore the command in the picture.

Let’s say I already have something output by previous command to console like yellow part in picture. I think this most recent part is distracting and want to remove it. How can I only clear the yellow part and leave green part and all output before green part as they were?



Macos does have a shortcut cmd+l to achieve this, however in ubuntu that actually just scroll your output up. While clear command would remove all ouput.



Thanks
