no, that's rather useful actually. it reminds me of junit.
if you're ever curious, there's a way to add breakpoints to applets
embedded in pages, which i discovered after my request for help.
particularly useful if you can tell what is breaking but not why.
also, what about bonds? are those going to need to be updated as well
when atom coordinates are changed? is there anything else like this
that might?
Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
