Hi Naoki,

The Blackdown Organization has a page of links to Java tools, including
IDEs at:

http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/javatools.html

I'm pleased that my tool is one of those mentioned since it was
developed in Java entirely on Linux (thanks Blackdown). Unlike many
IDEs, mine targets programmers, not screen painters. It has a scripting
language (Scheme by default, so emacs people should be quite at home)
and supports both jdk and jikes compilers. RCS version control is
integrated with the project for both source code and configuration
management. Furthermore, the tool includes a project packager which
generates an [obfuscated] version of your classes to a directory or jar
file for deployment.

The compiler, version control and script engines are pluggable, if you
want to support others (for example I did a version for the pizza
compiler) and you also get editors/builders for Scheme, JavaCC, C++ and
XML with validation (you need a SAX jar).

The tool uses NO proprietary binary file formats: all project files,
settings files etc. are plain text and can be easily read/written by
other tools (no more re-entering project info in every phase of your
life-cycle).

Our Lite version supports up to ten Java files (and any number of other
file types) and is free for download at:

http://www.elixir.com.sg/

The current version is 1.3.4 (and has been bootstrapped since 0.6). The
full version removes the ten Java file limit and costs US$ 59.

And finally the developer (not the sales guy, though it is starting to
look that way) is here if you have any problems or requests. It works
with the Java 2 pre 1, though I get huge gaps between the lines that
TTF, URW and anything else I throw at it doesn't seem to change.

Sorry this is quite long, I promise I'll post a huge stack trace instead
next time :)

Regards, 
Jon Priddey
