Re: New user on Mac OS X

Hi Phil,

exactly what I replied off-list (at work) this morning. I have all the  
jars on my classpath. I complained to Apple about the arbitrary  
renaming but to no avail.
Only thing is, you are pointing to the 1.3.1 version of classes.jar.  
The thing I have in .tcshrc is

setenv RJVMVERSION "1.4.1"

setenv CLASSPATH  
".:/Volumes/Workspace:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/
Versions/$RJVMVERSION/Classes/classes.jar:/System/Library/Frameworks/
JavaVM.framework/Versions/$RJVMVERSION/Classes/ui.jar:/System/Library/
Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/$RJVMVERSION/Classes/dt.jar:/
System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/$RJVMVERSION/
Classes/jsse.jar:/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/
$RJVMVERSION/Classes/laf.jar:/System/Library/Frameworks/
JavaVM.framework/Versions/$RJVMVERSION/Classes/jce.jar: -- snip--"

so I can change versions - which I do not do anymore because 1.4.1.  
finally seems usable, modulo some avoidable font bugs.

best regards,

Rene Jansen
