How can I clear the console? (screen on serial monitor)

How can I clear the log of the console? (screen on serial monitor)

come on guys ... its just a little problem :smiley:

for (int x = 0; x < 40; x++)
{
  Serial.println();
}

Is the best that you can do. The Serial Monitor does not understand cursor or other screen controls apart from Newline, Carriage Return and Tab.

thanks
