[Daniel Ortmann <address@hidden>] shell - should have some type of reset or clear function to remove all prior input

[Gerd Moellmann]

Any takers for this one?

(It occurred to the in the past that the current binding of C-x C-z
is not really useful, while I frequently am using a binding C-c z
which deletes from point to the end of the buffer, or to the beginning
of a buffer with prefix arg).
