Lynn, The alternative is SWT. It stands for Standard Widget Toolkit. I don't use it, so I can't tell you anything else about it.

I'm keen to learn Java, and obviously want to make my apps as accessible as possible. I remember reading on this list a while back that Swing isn't the best way to go, but can't remember what the suggested alternative was. Can someone give me a heads-up?
