How would I run a separate jar file and set its console output?

I want to be able to run a separate jar file, and be able to display any output from its console, and be able to send input. I want to be able to create a console which will act like the console in windows 7, but look better.

Process p = new ProcessBuilder("java", "-jar", "yourprogram.jar").start();

After finishing your code , create jar file output (It depends on which IDEA you are working on)

then you can use java -jar JarFileName.jar in order to run the jar file,

Note that JDK path should be defined in system environment to use java -jar command,
