RSiteSearch("clear screen")
will locate Windows code to send a ctrl-L to the screen that you
can modify.

If Windows, ESC interrupts a running command, and is not itself a command: rather it generates a software interrupt. I don't see how you can send anything from a script window without using either a mouse or the keyboard, and ESC is on your keyboard and also on the Misc menu. So what exactly are you trying to do? -- Brian D.
