commands in java to clear the screen

Question

What command in Java will let you clear the console in a command-line application?

Answer 1

I think what the OP wants is to clear the screen and move the cursor to the home position. For that try:

        final String ANSI_CLS = "u001b[2J";
        final String ANSI_HOME = "u001b[H";
        System.out.print(ANSI_CLS + ANSI_HOME);
        System.out.flush();
