Which console are you thinking of? The Python REPL or Treehouse Workspaces?

With a Python REPL, there is no deleting a command that has been issued. In the Workspaces console, it is a normal Linux shell that is dependent on use of the keyboard or STDIN stream. There isn't an undo or delete command per se unless you are talking about file and directory deletion.

Files are deleted with the rm command, and directories/folders are deleted with the rmdir command.

To find out more you can type rm --help or rmdir --help
