Java is not that close to the insides of the OS to be able to execute commands and interact with them.
The Runtime and Process classes can be used to execute OS commands. The streams that connect to those classes would allow you to do some interaction with the commands that are being executed.

I read about Runtime and process nut i didnt find anything about how to connect a text area with something like

(Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("terminal");)

You would read from the streams from the processes and put it into the textarea
