That is showing the console for short which is extremely annoying. especially if you do it multiple times in a row.

I tried with shell -f which doesn't show it, but then it doesn't update the screen. The next was 

  chain shell -f trash %s; reload_cwd

but that didn't work either so I did

 chain shell -f trash %s; eval time.sleep(0.2); reload_cwd

but I had to previously import time in commands.py (I am just learning python, perhaps there is other way).

however, that blanked the screen during sleeping.

So I just resorted to command.py. 

So... could you provide simple mapping which doesn't flicker ?
