I have a similar but different need, wonder if anyone has the same frustrations and knows a solution:<p>I often press enter key a few times to produce a noticeable gap between different runs of the same command. Yes, in theory, the shell prompt is enough to separate the runs, and I could customize the color, font etc, but that's still not as good as a few (almost) blank lines.<p>The workflow is like this: often I need to run a command that produces a decent amount of output and repeat that a few times. Not 3 lines, not 1k lines, but something like 40-100 lines -- not short enough that I can easily see both the beginning and the end, not long enough that I have to log it to a file. I want to be able to scroll to the top of the output and read it.<p>The "multiple enter key" approach works well enough, but is a bit repetitive and sometimes I forget to do that (then can't find where the output begins). I could also append printf "\n\n\n" but apparently it's annoying. I wonder if there is something simpler and works well. The tool in this article doesn't exactly match my need, as it prints a spacer immediately after output pauses, not after a command finishes.
