One way to do this is to determine when the console is null:

public static void main(String[] args) {
    Console console = System.console();
    if(console!=null){
        System.out.println("Console is not null");
    }else{
        System.out.println("Console is null");
    }
}

Try to run the code from the command line using the following command:

java -jar [your_runnable_file.jar]
