I run the following Java apps on a mixture of Windows and Linux OSs: 1. HJSplit for Java (GUI based easy file splitter). 2. Java Image Editor (http://www.jhlabs.com/ie/) <- why can't Sun buy this and other best-of-breed end-user apps,, open source all and make them optional "sample apps" for downoad via a "wizard" after the JVM is installed? 3. Azureus/Vuze* 4. Art of Illusion http://www.artofillusion.org/screenshots 5. JDiskReport http://www.jgoodies.com/freeware/jdiskreport/ 6. Frinika audio sequencer (GPL) http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=131823 7. VisualRoute http://www.visualroute.com/index.html 8. OpenStreetMap Editor http://josm.openstreetmap.de/ 9. Ultramixer DJ software http://www.ultramixer.de/ (Azureus: * by changing the app name to Vuze the project maintainers missed a big opportunity to sue Microsoft for its Azure which is 'confusingly similar' to Azureus... ;-) FC --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
