On Windows 8.1 and Java 7, both jython.exe -m pip and pip.exe work for me for installing robotframework:

c:\jython2.7.1b3>bin\jython.exe

(At some point we should fix the pip tool so as to not try to color output on Windows when run with Jython, to avoid these control characters being output. Another os._name vs os.name issue I'm sure.)
