Feature Request: Powershell ISE Console Clearing using Clear-Host (cls)

Hi everyone,

I would like to request a feature (I am sorry if there is already a solution out there which I might have overlooked):

Please implement support for Clear-Host in the sc Powershell ISE. Having a totally flooded output window completely slows down the browser to the point of literally crashing...

As you can see, some of our scripts produce a lot of console outputs: The Console output of the ISE Which causes chrome to absolutely run out of hand performance-wise: Chrome in the task manager

Running the same script without any console logging or in a background job causes absolutely no such problems.

Being able to clear the console or setting a maximum amount of lines before the console auto-clears in settings would be absolutely brilliant.

Cheers :)
