Anyone know of a command to clear the immediate window in visual studio? I hate having to grab the mouse for a right click menu there - would rather just type "cls" or something.

A:
It looks like >cls is already a defined alias. Look here for the complete list and here for how to define your own aliases. Scanning through, there's a whole slew of them, some of which might even have their roots in MS-DOS DEBUG.EXE (specifically >d, >g, >p, >q, and >t come to mind)?
Also worth noting, as it's only two keys to press:
Do you have a context-menu key on your keyboard (you know, the one between right-alt and right-ctrl)? If you're already in the window, you can context-menu-key, L.

i normally use the context key when I'm in the office - but i've been working on a laptop for the past few months from a clients office, and I don't have the context key on it. It finally bothered me enough to look for a solution...

Scott Ivey's answer is perfect. its ">cls" for clearing the immediate window. I got it quickly on googling. Thanks a lot.
