Re: java

[Jardine@t-online.de (moron)]

Thanks for your help.  I'm not short of JDKs (on CDs and on the Win95 half
of my hard drive), but I don't know my way around Debian yet.  I presume I
would need some Debian program (jdk1.1-dev?) to install the JDK.  I didn't
find
anything
linux-specific on the javasoft site.  Would I have to upgrade (from hamm) to
slink for this?  (I seem to be years away from getting my internet
connection working.)
