[Tutor] Clearing interpreter buffer?

My friend John is running a Python script with lots
of print statements in some looping program.

The data scrolls and scrolls, maybe all day long, and
he says its filling up the history buffer -- what IDLE
keeps around to scroll back through.

He'd like to periodically delete this buffer or clear
it, from within his program.

Is there a way?
