Clear R Console

I've been searching for a way to clear the R console, something like a cls() function.
But it seems R does not provide one.
I've found and tried a solution for Windows that emulated the CTRL+L command, which clears the console, but it simply did not work.

So, after some more research I've found this extremely easy, quick and dirty solution: cat(rep("\n",128)).
It does precisely what I need and is system independent.
