Hello Marcus,

> Do you know of any RTF edit control that may be obtained?

Have you looked at javax.swing.text.rtf  ("a class (RTFEditorKit) for creating
Rich-Text-Format text editors"), hopefully it can help you.

If you want to call an external program, you will have to use a signed
applet.
To make this work on most browsers, you will either have to get a
certificate
from a certification authority like Verisign or ask the user to install your
own
root certificate before using the applet. (I would be reluctant to do that.)
You'd then execute the application from inside the applet and wait from
there
until it is closed and send the updated file back to the server.

An easier solution would be to use an applet with a RTF edit control
embedded in the webpage.
