Hi Everyboddy, I'm sorry if someone has answered this already. Personally I don't like the jdk very much because of the difficulty of installation. I use instead gcj the gnu java compiler. It will compile in code native to the machine you are running on, or write java class bytecodes that theoretically anybody from any machine can execute. This all runs fine and is perfectly accessible. However, I'm not aware of any way to execute java applets in a web page that will make them accessible. This is because as far as I know the only web browser under Linux that supports java is Netscrape. That runs under X. Also, GNU Java hasn't implemented the AWT toolkit yet. Presumably that'll run under X as well. Jim
