No. But you could (possibly) send the escape codes used to do the
actual positioning. The codes can be found at
http://www.termsys.demon.co.uk/vtansi.htm and ESC is ASCII 27
char ESC = (char) 27;
System.out.print(ESC+"[{"+row+"};{"+column+"}H"+text);
System.out.flush();
In my test, this didn't work on my Win2k's cmd shell, but it could be
that the support for ANSI/vt100 is less than perfect.
