Implemented as a shell function:

function java {
	if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
		echo "Usage: $0 classname"
		return 1
	fi
	base=`dirname $1`/`basename $1 .java`
	if [ ! -f $base.html ]; then
		echo "No such file: $base.html"
		return 2
	fi
	netscape -remote "openURL(file:`pwd`/$base.html)"
}

It works fairly well!  If you've got `javac' set up to use Netscape as
the compiler, then compiling and previewing your java applet becomes
as easy as:

	javac Foo.java
	java Foo.java
