Hi Sven,
Thanks, I asked the java gurus at work and got two answers to the IDE
question: eclipse or netbeans. Apparently there are issues with the
visual gui builder in the latest eclipse so I started using netbeans.
Netbeans is in synaptic so if you get that then I can upload the code to
subversion and send you the logon (I should set that up anyway).
