Brand new to pico8, but looking forward to getting started with it.

I was working on a hello world example, but I'd like to create a new cartridge.
Is there a "New" shortcut or command, so I can start from scratch?

on the CLI use the "reboot" command, it will restart pico8 and clear everything

Fair enough.

I was hoping for something a little swifter, but thank you :)

I just saved an empty.p8 file and load it whenever I want to start fresh.

that is a good idea! I'll do that for the future.

Quite nice to save a template.p8 file, with _draw, _update and whatever else you know you always use for each cartridge. I have one with left, right, up, down variables defined as 0-4; time defined and incremented in _update, and a couple helper functions.

you might need multiple templates, best idea is probably a templates folder with both an empty project and all your templates.
