Hi, in C++, there is a command you can use to clear the command prompt screen. The command is used like so:
system("cls");
Is there such a command in java? If so, what is it?

the short answer is, you can't. There are ways of doing it that are platform dependant, but depending on whether it uses command.com or other there is no guarentee it will work. The only thing i can suggest is a loop of println(), as lame as that is.

Yeah I just wanted to do it in WinXP. Not interested in writing cross-platform software at the moment :-)
