get xemacs (at least version 21)

M-x jde

class browser, easy links to javadoc, click to compile, click to
debug, etc, etc

will work on windows or any unix. can even use gtk with the new(ish)
xemacs/gtk port (so jeff/raster can still have their themes).


(why do people keep using anything other than xemacs
 (for non-trivial tasks) ?)


(slight aside: everyone should try M-x speedbar
 its a directory/file browser, except that you can also click on
 *many* types of file and see/jump to "interesting sections" in the
 file. eg: functions for c, sections for LaTeX, etc)
