Can anybody please explain why the c code:
    printf("%c[H%c[J",27,27); clears my cygwin console as expected, but the
Java code:

 System.out.print("\033[2J\033[H");

displays a back arrow instead on interpreting the escape character?

the problem seems impervious to all language level variations and ansi.sys
loaded or not in windows land

cygwin on windows xp, jdk1.6.0_06 from sun, gcc et.al. from cygwin

thanks for any help
