Download the TGZ or COMPRESSED TAR version, add swingall.jar to your classpath and enjoy. The JDK is a different story. People like Steve Byrne are working on this.

Linux is _the_ platform for running server-side Java (besides Solaris). I am currently investigating some http servers which support servlets, like apache (with the jserv module), vqServer, jigsaw and JavaSoft's JWS. If you know how to work with Linux and you know how to run Java programs from an command line, you'll find Linux is great for Java (and vice versa) ;-) GreetinX++ from Holland, Ernst -- +---------------------------------------------------------+ | "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I | | will give you rest." | | | | -- Jesus Christ (Mt. 11:28) | +-----------------------+---------------------------------+ | Ernst de Haan | email [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Java programmer | web members.xoom.com/znerd/ | +-----------------------+---------------------------------+
