In case you haven't seen it, just ran across Java Web Start, a web portal
concept very similar to that written in MetaCard at the Himalayan Academy,
which inspired my own experiments (links to all below). Web Start is a
small window that lists available apps/applets on the web. Open one and it
Java Web Start is also available in the distribution for Mac OS X (Mac
versions not shown on link I provided in earlier email on this topic). See

Hello,
I would like to give users of my project the option of using the MC

Problem: after calculating a result like the above, I add it to 3
different globals - a column total, a line total, and a cumulative
total. If there is only one column, all three numbers should be the
same but eventually, they start getting

I'm experimenting with using load url and go url to download and run
stacks from web servers. Is there a way to download gzipped stacks,
decompress() them and run them using these commands? I imagine one could
get the gzipped stack, put it into a variable, decompress() it, write it to
