ChemSketch is available, or was a year ago, as Java applet and is platform 
independent.  I also found it to be more accurate in defining stereochemical 
features than was JME.  But I was using the SMILES approach from both.   I 
wanted a student to be able to draw a structure which upon submission would be 
converted to a SMILES string which I would then compare to the correct answer.  
JME would not always give the same strung for the drawing, though the string 
was also correct, and the stereochemistry was not always reproducible.   Since 
the program involved both stereo- and regio-chemistry correctness, I abandoned 
JME.  However, I got sidetracked and have not finished the project:-(

I would be interested in hearing more about the JME string?
