How can I make a box around text in Java which will appear in Windows cmd.exe?

Only using System.out.print("X"); and System.out.println("X"); . It MUST be a solid box and not use symbols like - or _ .

It can also use int X , double X, char X, String X, and boolean X.



Please explain it step by step. I'm a complete noob. :-)
