All of my aliases are convenience aliases: cls=clear # Yes, I started out in DOS ls=ls --color=auto ll=ls -l ll.=ls -al And that's it. It's amazing how different peoples' workflows become once a tool allows a certain level of customizability.

    cmd-k also clears the scrollback buffer. It's probably the single thing I miss most after moving back to linux from macOS.

      You can bind Alt-K to Reset and clear in gnome-terminal's keyboard bindings.

        Thank you! My remaining minor complaint: alt-k loses the prompt.

        Alt-K and Ctrl-l will solve that :)
