# ClearConsole
> "Clear" the console by printing a bunch of new lines.
This plugin was inspired from [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/24760927/4361297) on StackOverflow by [@MattDMo](https://github.com/MattDMo), and is simply a means of convenience around it that allows you to clear the console by just using some hotkeys.
## Installation
1. Open the Command Palette by pressing ⌘+Shift+P on Mac or Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows
2. Type in `Package Control: Install Package` and press Enter
3. Type `ClearConsole` and hit Enter
## Usage
By default, the hotkey to clear the console is alt+k. You can change which keys you want to use by going to `Preferences > Key Bindings - User` and adding this line:
```
[
...
{ "keys": ["alt+k"], "command": "clear_console" }
]
```
Simply replace `alt+k` with the key combination you want to use.
