Is there a way to refresh the console back to where it was only showing "treehouse: ~/workspace$"?

Pressing ctrl+l clears the console but does not show "treehouse: ~/workspace$" and instead shows the chevron (>>>) which limits my commands to those only available through python. I would like to restart back to the "treehouse: ~/workspace$" without having to exit the console and opening it back up. Thanks!

You mean, exiting the python REPL? In that case try CTRL/CMD D to exit REPL or just typing exit().

>>> exit()

exit() got the job done. Thank you!
