I'm guessing you simply want to save the contents of the console screen.
That my friend is easy, and has been here awhile. The Java console is just a window that contains the output of System.out and System.err, in addition to mirroring the System.in input typed into the console by a user.
Thanks for your suggetion, but sometimes it is pretty difficult add my own stream into a exiting large project, especially the source of some jar file are not available......
Also is there any suggestion on how to redirect the System.out and System.err for a web start app......
Another quick question, would you please tell me how i can enlarge the console buffer please?......
Thx in advance
