How to embed a mini-console within a Java app?

Question

I'm making a small game in Java and would like to add a Quake 3 style of console to the game, that supposed to appear when toggled. Is there any implementation or any similar embedded console you folks know of?

Otherwise, what would be a good way to go about it? Right now, I simply have a TextArea on top of a TextField. Just to clarify, I'm not looking for a full fledged terminal, what I need is a small little console that I can tie with the game.
