There is nothing wrong with Jacl that we could fix to "support"
applets. The "problem" is that the JVM inside Netscape's browser
is totally busted. I have not tested the Microsoft JVM so I
can not speak about that.

You can run Jacl applets that only use Tcl commands.
You might want to check out these pages on Christopher Hylands
site, they are a little dated but have some great info.

You should be using Jacl 1.2.5. There will be a new 1.2.6
release in the next couple of weeks. There is no reason
to wait for the new release unless you need one of the bug
fixes in it.
