Per--sounds like Kawa's got some good code to build on top of. One
question would be how to structure the console (whether GUI or CLI) in
such a way that language implementors would not feel constrained, but
rather welcome and interested in plugging in their own language (e.g.
adaptor to a language's interpreter, context introspection, etc.).

Just found this (if others on the list find related libraries, please list them)
http://java-readline.sourceforge.net/

>From the project page:
"Java-Readline is a port of GNU Readline for Java. Or, to be more
precise, it is a JNI-wrapper to Readline. It is distributed under the
LGPL.

Although Java-Readline is distributed under the LGPL, the underlying
Readline library is GPL code. The consequence is, that any program
linking with Java-Readline+Readline, will fall under the GPL.

There is a Readline replacement called Editline with a more liberal
license. Starting with version 0.6, you have the choice of linking
against Editline. This version also features a fallback solution
(System.in) for platforms without Readline or Editline support, making
your programs portable again."
