I'll take a bit more of look at it tomorrow. Also, I'll run any tests or experiments you recommend then.

Thanks, Patricia.  I'll. Try and look at those tonight.  I don't know how
much luck I will have though, no Windows machines in my house!

Cheers,

I downloaded the source, and tried a naive build on Windows XP, Cygwin.
I put a JDK 1.5 bin directory at the start of my path, and ran "ant

(I'm not worried about the deprecated APIs, just the compile failures.)

I next tried to find instructions. I looked at
src-doc/static/build.html. It says "The bin directory of the Java(TM) 2
SDK, Standard Edition, v 1.4 (or later) must be in your executable
search path."

I believe we now need 1.5 or later.
