OK, we could have a config file, created by the aplication (applet), when there
isn't one, which the user could than edit, or even run the applet with
parameters, which I believe is posible, but I'm Not sure (haven't worked on Java
for 2 years now)

Realy I would prefere using a link-library and we make that source-code plus
most used binaries available on ldraw.org ... so everyone willing to use it
can download it and include it into his program.

I'm Not really following you, the "download it and include it into his program"
is completely feasible, with the applet, anyone could download it from
ldraw.org
I only mentioned that, for security reasons, the applet would have to be run on
our PC, and NOT directly from the web site.

I mean the idea having java applets for something is not bad, but I don't
like it for a installation tool, it's a bit to complicated for an
installation tool.

I'm Not following you again, you don't even need to include it on any specific
software installation tool, everyone can download it from the web !
We just have to inform people (ex: readme file, software web page) so that they
do download it.

This would also have the advantage of having only one place for IT (applet),
which is a lot easyer to maintain.

See ya
