clearing CIW window?

Is there any way to clear CIW window (message/log window) from menus or with a SKILL command?

Thanks

    I find that turning on everything in the Log Filter (CIW Options menu) helps a lot. As CAD, I have all log settings tuned on, but most of my users have a subset turned on. When I look at their CIW windows, I typically only see error and warning messages and find it difficult to know if they are related to a recent command. When the log filter at least shows the input (Accelerated Input in 6.1, or Input Menu Commands in 5.1.41), the the log filter is constantly scrolling every time you perform an action (zoom, scroll, select, etc). The Warnings and Errors are then associated with the command on the preceding line.

    Just my 2 cents ...
