title: run a basic digital clock in the python shell
body: <p>I want to code simple digital clock in the python shell. I want to avoid using tkinter if possible. This is what I currently have;</p>
  
  <pre><code>import time
  while True:
      from datetime import datetime
      now = datetime.now()  
      print ("%s/%s/%s %s:%s:%s" % (now.month,now.day,now.year,now.hour,now.minute,now.second)) 
      time.sleep(1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This produces a recurring print out, something like this;</p>
  
  <pre><code>06/29/16 23:08:32
  
  06/29/16 23:08:33
  
  06/29/16 23:08:34
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I know this is crude, I'm still learning. I just want one line with a "ticking" digital clock in the shell. I'm using python 3.5.1 on idle and windows 10.</p>
  
  <p>If this isn't possible, I'd very much like to know why.</p>
  
  <p>Kindest thanks </p>
