rename your file from "counter.java" (with a lowercase c)
to "Counter.java" (with an uppercase C). Note that you might
need to "rename counter.java x.java" and then
"rename x.java Counter.java" so rename doesn't complain about
trying to rename a file over itself.
Although win32's command line tools like copy, rename, etc. aren't
case sensitive... javac, java, jikes, and other programs are.

Subject: Compilation problems on Win2k
Hello,
I am just learning to program in java. I have the JDE set up on a
Win2k Pro system.
GNU Emacs 20.7.1 (i386-*-nt5.0.2195) of Tue Jun 13 2000 on buffy
Everything seems to work fine, except when I compile, I get this
error:
8<-------------------------->8
cd c:/Program Files/emacs/src/
C:\jdk1.3.1\bin\javac counter.java
counter.java:12: class Counter is public, should be declared in a file
named Counter.java
public class Counter
^
1 error
Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Mon Jul 09 16:02:55

Well, but ... Windows is not case sensitive, so saving the file in
Counter.java or counter.java makes no difference. I don't see
anything in the documentation about this issue.
Thank you for any help.
