Nice to have this free equivalent to Delphi. However it takes >100 MiB
and is decreasingly used.

Very nice, beware of missing/unmet dependencies.

Right, educational development tools include BlueJ and Greenfoot. Alas
non-GPL. Please keep asking.

Indeed. But maybe anybody knows of the openoffice-wrapper for
java/eclipse? It is said to give a simple interface to address
openoffice by Java commands (comparable to Ponto being based on Python)
As for the GUI builder, Netbeans was easier to handle when I tried last.

Very nice, but this was replaced by another version AFAIR.
There is a non-profit JPrologEditor that gives a nice GUI to prolog. But
it shouldn't be too hard to do the same thing with KWrite or the like.
(Emacs? - well...)
How about:
python,squeak, umbrello (musthave), kdevelop (Qt/c++)
There is also some neat educational Java apps that are GPLed:
JFractionlab, Geogebra, Geonext etc.
Kind regards
Ralf
