Re: java access with gnopernicus?

["Thomas D. Ward" <tward1978 earthlink net>]

Hi, Bill and list.
Ok, I have set the symbolic links, and added   the .orbitrc file in my home
directory with the line in it that you gave me to place in it.
However, when I attempt to runn the notepad application by typing this
command into the run dialog
java -jar /usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1_02/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar
and then select the run button I believe the Notepad app is on the screen,
but gnopernicus simply stops speaking.
Any more ideas why this is faling to operate? I think I am launching the
application correctly, but I'm not sure.
