Output TextArea Problem

I have some code that calls System.out.println(...).  This results in the
expected output in the Output TextArea, but sometimes I get a "." character
in front of what I expected.  For example, System.out.println("test") has
".test" for output.  However code right below that that prints exception
information does not have the "." character prepended.

Any ideas why I might be getting this?  I am running JSwat on WindowsXP
using JDK 1.4.1_02.
