Is there a way to clear the contents of the Console?

I'm trying to do some work by writing entries out to it, and it's nice to be able to click into it, control a, control c, then paste into a text editor -- but old runs are still present, so I have to quit and restart each time.
Alternately, a menu entry/option to write out the text?

Yep.

And yep, all there in the snapshot version via context menu.

ciao,

That there is! My thanks! And many thanks to the developers!
If we could just add a menu entry for "Filter, then copy text" or words to that effect, I'd be all set. (or a menu entry/option for saving out the echo output only as a text file).
