On that note, I checked in a version of fserve.c / fserve.exe and flaunch.ini 
that should work with either jvm, so it will be possible to re-enable 
detection of jview/jview when the next installer gets made.  Note that it is 
always located in %windir% (on 98/me) or %windir%\system32 (on NT/2000).  I 
still think it would be a good idea to have a with-java version available, 
unless the legal stuff (ick) makes that impossible.

p.s.  The windows packages of Sun's jxta demos consist mostly of a jar file 
and a small .exe stub, which calls Microsoft's 'wjview' to run their program.  
I'm not sure why Sun thinks it's a better idea to do that then redistribute 
their own JRE, but if it's good enough for them...

Also note that the fserve.exe I uploaded is rather larger than its predecessor 
(about 32K).  This is because I compiled it with MSVC, which has an 
unfortunate habit of turning small sources into relatively large executables.  
If anyone has a 'leaner' compiler, it would probably be a good idea to 
recompile it.
