Is there a getchar() equivalent in Java for JTextFields?

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to fetch characters from a JTextField that is similar to getchar() in C?

I have an action event listener on my JTextField but I have not found a way to get the text other than a full line with the getText() method.
What I would like to do is to push the Characters on a stack as they are entered in the text field.
