Also @pfitzseb 's [solution](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/clear-terminal-window/17046/9) works quite well, if your terminal supports escape codes:

```julia
for i in 1:10
      print("\e[0;0H\e[2J")
      display(plot(sin, 0, i))
      sleep(0.5)
end

```

meaning if you put the first two lines of the loop body in a callback, it should work as expected.
