On Windows there is no easy way to clear the screen. On Linux and on Mac OS X typing CTRL-L will clear the screen.

:c and :clear will reset the terminal after a query fails with an error or is asking for more input and you want to abort the query.

Edited to add:

If the Gremlin console is in local mode (in other words you type :remote console to put it into local mode) you can do this:

gremlin> def cls() {
......1> for (a in 1..50) println " " }

then typing cls() will clear the screen

Edited again to add:

On more recent Windows 10 updates try this command in the Gremlin Console when in local mode.

println("\033[H\033[2J")

Or if your are already connected to the remote server try just entering the string on its own.

"\033H\033[2J\033[H"
