How to add scroll empty space in terminal?
When you do find /
in the native ubuntu terminal it prints output till the end of the screen. After this there is no empty scroll space available to scroll down. I temporarily solved this problem by clear
function which adds additional scroll space. I do python programming in terminal and in it this doesn't work
for a in range(1000):
print(a)
How I can hard code terminal to get some scroll empty space for both bash and python?
command-line gnome-terminal

What do you have your terminal profile scroll buffer set to? Scrolling in such a situation is the default.

My Ubuntu 18.04 gnome-terminal (3.28.2-1ubuntu1~18.04.1) is not limited, up to 100k lines, which is all I've tested for. What release are you running, and which terminal version/package?

3.18.3 ubuntu 16.04. Even python programme which prints less than 1000 lines has the same problem

As far as I understand, your problem is that there is no empty space under the output of your utilities. New lines will automatically appear there and the existing content will scroll upwards whenever needed. What is your actual problem, what is it that doesn't work for you?
