Hi Randy,

Thanks for the tip.  I got the latest tar and read the
page you suggested. 

The documentation, though helpful, talks about running a network in an
applet in a brower.  It does not, as far as I can tell,  address the 
simpler problem:  how to write a module in java to run in the conventional
DX interface.  Maybe if I were smarter :} I would be able to figure
this out on my own...

David does imply that this is possible.  In section 11.1, he says:

   Once the Java Explorer modules are added, the network can
   be executed from either the standard DX user interface
   or a web browser via the Java Explorer server, elimininating
   dual-source problems.

It would be very helpful to see just a minimal example of a java module -- 
a little recipe for cooking up one which I can plug into the regular
DX UI.

Any tips?

Many thanks, and I hope I am not being annoying -

 - Paul
