The problem with this approach is that > Java development environments are kind of Win95 centric :( I've found that although the Win95 stuff is easy to get the GUI up and running quickly, when the application starts to get more 'significant' you end up running into bugs/limitations on the commercial IDE's. We do our initial setup under '95, then once we get the layouts done we move them over to unix and fill them out. This also gives the advantage of using a *real* editor (XEmacs currently blows any integrated editor completely out of the water). Nate
