IRB clear screen on windows

URL: http://www.stephenchu.com/2006/09/enhance-your-irb-experience-on-windows.html

Since there is no convenient way to clear the console in irb on windows, we can simple emulate the dos cls function

Plain TextExpand 
  1. # throw this inside %userprofile%\.irbrc and you're good
  2. def cls
  3.   system('cls')
  4. end
