David - Java is quite EZ to install from scratch. I downloaded the
Blackdown tarball from
http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux.html and
followed the simple instructions contained within.
Most Java apps are started like this:
java -jar ~/.Arachnophilia/Arachnophilia.jar
Arachnophilia being a nice Java HTML editor found at
www.arachnoid.com/arachnophilia
