Trey:

I can't think of a way with plain Java (as there isn't one way on all
platforms).  I'd look at detecting the platform and using the
appropriate args in a Runtime.exec() call.  Sure beats assuming a
console is 25 lines tall and tossing 25 printns to the screen (as I've
seen *many* students to <g>).
