'Chinese letters' printed instead of non-english chars

Question

Hi ,
I use a cmd in which i execute the java programs i have developed... Whereas , i write non-english(greek) letters in my source programs the cmd does not display them....only 'chinese letters or non-understandable symbols'...
Of course... i can write greek letters in the cmd....
Is there something that i can do except for writing the messages with english/latin ...chars???
Note:I use Win XP and jdk 1.4
Thanks,
Sim

public class switchPr
public static void main(String[] args)
  int a=(int)(12*Math.random());
  switch (a)
   case 1:
     System.out.println("Ιανουάριος");
     break;
   case 2:
     System.out.println("Φεβρουάριος");
     break;
   case 3:
     System.out.println("Μάρτιος");
     break;
   case 4:
     System.out.println("Απρίλιος");
     break;
   default:
      System.out.println("other...");
     break;
