Get console output

Question

Hi!
I have a problem. I would like to get a hand on the console output in my applet. Not saving it to a file, but get the info as a String(or similar) in my program.
Is this possible? If so, how do I do it? Is there any class(es) to handle this?
Thanks in advance.
Peter.

import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class IOTest {
     public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
          ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
          PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(baos);
          System.setOut(ps);
          System.setErr(ps);
          System.out.println("Output");
          JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, new String(baos.toByteArray()));
          System.err.println("Error");
          JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, new String(baos.toByteArray()));
}
