I made a programing mistake (or something made a mistake) and now I have a computer with 1/2 billion log lines to Console. I:
echo "" > /var/log/system.log

The master logging system is ASL — I think system.log is just a shadow. I don't know of a command that explicitly deletes ASL logs, but 'man aslmanager' has some information.
