           Summary: Add support for xterm CSI 3 J sequence
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konsole-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: mw_triad users sourceforge net


Version:           2.1 (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

While looking at http://rtfm.etla.org/xterm/ctlseq.html (mentioned in bug #158905), I noticed the '3' variant of the clear sequence CSI # J, which is described as "Erase Saved Lines". That sounds a whole lot like "clear history", and sure enough, in xterm that's what it does.

I know Konsole has the new 'send commands via escape sequences' thing, but that has the disadvantage of a: being very long to type, and b: clear history must be done by disabling history and re-enabling (which means if you had it on 'unlimited' and change it "back" to fixed... oops).

How about recognizing CSI 3 J (a.k.a. '\e[3J' a.k.a. '^[[3J') ala xterm?
