python - Erasing output from ssh

Question

Hi I have a simple script for ssh connection to cisco switch and I want to get running configuration of the device. The script is written to use if necessary multiple show commands so I'm using invoke_shell().

To avoid waiting for spacebar to be pressed I've added simple while loop.

    while str(recieve).__contains__('--More--'):
        channel.send(' 
')
        time.sleep(1)
        recieve = channel.recv(10000)
        final += str(recieve.decode("ascii"))

And here is the issue.

If I then printout final it shows full show run command without --More-- but when I write contents of final variable to file it adds this string: --More-- .

I've tried to look in string with replace('--More--', '') but it didn't find that string.
