pause in java

[think.correctly]

i have a six weeks program and it is to print out a title screen and then a receipt. thing is, the title screen is the entire 80 x 26 of the dos box and it prints really quick and then goes straight to the receipt. i want it so the title screen pauses for a few seconds and then goes to the receipt. i just need something small to stick in.

try {
Thread.currentThread().sleep(3000);
}
catch (InterruptedException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}

this will wait for 3000 miliseconds ( 3 seconds ).
