How to print console output

Question

Hi, I have a JSP page and I would like to print STDOUT to the page. Is this possible?
I've seen a few methods and none work for me:
BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(System.out);
String input = reader.readLine();
out.println(input);*** Error: Type BufferedReader was not found.
FileOutputStream out;
                PrintStream ps; // declare a print stream object
                try {
                 // Create a new file output stream
                out = new FileOutputStream("myfile.txt");
                        // Connect print stream to the output stream
                        ps = new PrintStream(out);
                        ps.println ("This data is written to a file:");
            System.err.println ("Write successfully");
                        ps.close();
                catch (Exception e){
                        System.err.println ("Error in writing to file");
                }*** Error: Duplicate declaration of local variable "out".
*** Error: The type of the left-hand side in this assignment, "javax/servlet/jsp/JspWriter", is not compatible with the type of the right-hand side expression, "java/io/FileOutputStream".
*** Error: No match was found for constructor "PrintStream(javax.servlet.jsp.JspWriter)".
So what's next?
How can I call the console without writing to a file first?
I would like AJAX to show console output in real-time.

Thanks for your help.
The reason I have the script to write to a file is because it's the closest I could find to what I want. Ideally, I would be able to run a script that prints to the console but I want to grab the system.out going to the console and display it on the page.
Basically, I want the page to act as a console but not redirect the output (I want it to still go to the console) and I don't want it in a text file that the page reads.
So for example, the page loads and while that is occurring, the server grabs the console output and prints to the page. Then I run a function on the page that prints to the console and on the refresh, print the updated output. Ideally, I would restrict the output that was relevant to the page's functions and ignore every output to the console but I'm not (trying to be) picky.
So how would that work?
Pseudo-code:
for (int i=0;i < System.out().length(); i++) {
        String grabbedtext += System.out().toString();
}out.println(grabbedtext);
